ASBMB Mildred Cohn Young Investigator Award

Not awarded this year.

The ASBMB Mildred Cohn Young Investigator Award recognizes outstanding research contributions to biochemistry and molecular biology. The recipient must have no more than 15 years of experience since receiving a Ph.D. and/or M.D. Only degrees received after March 1, 2009, are eligible for this award. The award is given every other year, alternating with the Earl and Thressa Stadtman Young Scholar Award.

Both nominees and nominators must be ASBMB members.

The award consists of a plaque, $5,000 and travel expenses to present a lecture at the ASBMB annual meeting.

In 2023, the Mildred Cohn Award in Biological Chemistry and the ASBMB Young Investigator Award were combined to create the ASBMB Mildred Cohn Young Investigator Award.
