Passano Foundation - Passano Award

External Deadline: 
Nov 2020

Deadline: November 15, 2018

The Passano Foundation was founded in 1943 having as its sole purpose the encouragement of medical science and research, particularly those endeavors with clinical applications.  The leader and guiding spirit of the Foundation was the late Edward Boetler Passano, a past Chairman of the Board of Williams & Wilkins Co.  Mr. Passano saw his business, publishing medical books and periodicals, as a vital part of the work of the medical profession and bound by the same ideals: integrity and high purpose.  This same dedication to excellence continues to govern the Passano Foundation today.

Beginning in 1945, the Foundation has presented an award each year to a person or persons who have made an outstanding contribution to the advancement of medical science and whose work was done in the United States.  Prime consideration is given to work that has immediate clinical value or gives promise of practical application in the near future.

All nominations for the 2018 Passano Award are due by November 15, 2018.  In an effort to reduce the use of paper, nominations will only be accepted via email.  Please submit your nomination to info@waverlymanagement.com.  The Board will make its selection in December 2018 and will notify the winner in early 2019.
