Anesthesiology is seeking nominations for the 2025 ASA Award for Excellence in Research and 2025 James E. Cottrell, MD, Presidential Scholar Award. Awards will be presented during the Celebration of Research at ANESTHESIOLOGY® 2025.
The annual ASA Award for Excellence in Research recognizes an individual for outstanding achievement in research that has or is likely to have an important impact on the practice of anesthesiology. The individual's work must represent a body of original, mature, and sustained contribution to the advancement of the science of anesthesiology. Nominees need not be a physician, an anesthesiologist, or a member of ASA but must be presently engaged in research related to anesthesiology, academically accomplished with peer-reviewed publications and funded research, and nominated in response to a call for nominations.
The James E. Cottrell, MD, Presidential Scholar Award recognizes colleagues who dedicate their formative careers to research. Anesthesiologists who are within 10 years of their first appointment to a department of anesthesiology, who are board-certified in their country of practice, who are ASA members, and who are clinically active in anesthesia, intensive care, or pain medicine are eligible for the award. Candidates should be nominated by their department chair or by the ASA Committee on Research.
The deadline for award nominations is March 31, 2025. Please submit nominations or any questions regarding these awards to Managing Editor, Anesthesiology: managing-editor@anesthesiology.org.
