Congratulations to the 2022 SOT Award Recipients

By Ilona Jaspers posted 01-13-2022 03:07 PM

  

Despite the myriad challenges that recent years have presented both professionally and personally, the toxicology community has continued to make outstanding contributions that propel the field forward and deserve recognition. For more than 50 years, the SOT Awards Program has celebrated the achievements of budding and seasoned toxicologists, and the Society is proud to announce the recipients of the 2022 SOT Awards and honors.

This year’s awardees operate at the leading edge of toxicology, and their research has contributed to academia, government, and industry in areas such as new approach methodologies, cannabinoids, and the microbiome. In 2022, we recognize bright, early career researchers at the undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral levels whose work is already influencing the future of toxicology, as well as career toxicologists who paved the way.

This outstanding group of researchers will be recognized in person during the SOT 61st Annual Meeting and ToxExpo in San Diego, California. We invite those of you who are attending the meeting on-site to join us for the 2022 SOT Awards Ceremony on Sunday, March 27, from 5:15 pm to 6:30 pm. We look forward to the opportunity to congratulate our 2022 SOT Award recipients in person in San Diego in March and hope you will join us in these celebratory activities.

To view the citations of the award recipients, please consult the “2022 SOT Award Recipients” web page on the SOT website and the 2022 Awards Program PDF.
