Distinguished Toxicology Scholar Award Grant

The Distinguished Toxicology Scholar Award, established by the Society of Toxicology (SOT) in 1961, recognizes a member's significant contributions to toxicology. This prestigious award honors active scientists who have made groundbreaking advancements in the field. Recipients receive a plaque, a cash stipend, and the opportunity to present the Distinguished Toxicology Scholar Award Lecture at the SOT Annual Meeting. Preference is given to nominees who haven't received another SOT Award in the past two years.

SOT operates under four guiding principles:
Serving the needs of the scientific discipline and our members to enhance human, animal, and environmental health.Life-long learning and intellectual scientific stimulation.
Diversity of representation in all activities of the Society.
Integrity.
The Distinguished Toxicology Scholar Award is presented to a member of SOT who has made substantial and seminal scientific contributions to our understanding of the science of toxicology. Nominees should be active scientists involved in toxicological research. The prime consideration for this award is scientific accomplishment.
The award consists of a plaque that is presented at the SOT Awards Ceremony during the Annual Meeting, a cash stipend, and an invitation to deliver the Distinguished Toxicology Scholar Award Lecture at the Annual Meeting at which the award is given.
