Recipients Announced: April 15, 2023
Awards Presented: AAH Section Business Meeting at AAA Annual Meeting
The Academy has a number of prestigious awards presented every year. Please review the descriptions and nominate a colleague or yourself.
Each year, the administrator of the Academy will solicit nominations for all annual awards. The review and selection of awards will be completed by the Executive Committee with consultation of others as needed with the exception of the Alfred R. Roberts Memorial Research Award which will have its own unique selection committee. All awards recipients are to be announced to the membership via email, published in the Notebook and announced at a business meeting. For those awards for which a plaque is included, an in-person presentation at a conference will be made when possible. Some, but not all awards, include a small monetary award.
