The Translational Impact Award celebrates recent and exceptional clinical, environmental health, or translational research that has significantly improved human or public health within the field of toxicology. It honors scientists whose work in the last 10 years, particularly those leading multidisciplinary teams, has alleviated toxicity-related health issues through innovative solutions.
