ASBMR - The ASBMR Early Career Excellence in Teaching Award

Organization: American Society for Bone and Mineral Research

The ASBMR Early Career Excellence in Teaching Award recognizes an individual in the early stage of his or her career (Assistant or early Associate Professor rank or equivalent level at a non-U.S. institution or in the clinical or private sector) who displays a strong commitment to teaching and learning in the classroom, the clinic and/or research laboratory setting. Candidates for this award should have made a significant impact on students' intellectual development by providing them with opportunities to develop their interests in science generally and in bone and mineral-related research specifically. Those nominees who have created a research or learning environment characterized by enthusiasm for teaching and learning, effective teaching and mentoring strategies, high expectations, and outstanding results will be most strongly considered for this award. The award includes a $1,500 honorarium and a plaque that will be presented at the President's Private Dessert Reception at the Annual Meeting.
