24th Annual ACCM Research Day Category Award Recipients

Thank you to our presenters and collaborators for your contributions in science and to our moderators, facilitators, and admins for ensuring a successful Research Day!

Category awards were selected by moderators based on contributions to science and quality of presentation and Q&A.

Health equity awards were selected by health equity moderators based on contributions to health equity (e.g. characterizing mechanisms of disparity, investigating populations associated with inequities, evaluating interventions to address and promote equity, and/or educating or disseminating information on health equity).
