RICHARD BING AWARD (early career investigators)
The purpose of the Richard J. Bing Award for Young
Investigators is to recognize outstanding endeavors by new
investigators and to encourage continued biomedical research
careers broadly related to cardiovascular biology. The
Award is bestowed triennially during the ISHR World
Congress. Four finalists are selected by a Committee of the
ISHR for presentation of their work at the World Congress.
The winner will receive a plaque and a cash award of US
$5,000. The three runner-ups will receive a plaque and a
cash award of $1,000. For additional information, please click here.

OUTSTANDING INVESTIGATOR AWARD (established
investigators)
The purpose of this Award is to recognize an established
investigator who has reached independence, has already made
important scientific discoveries, and leads a growing research
program likely to play a major role in the future. The main
criteria for selecting awardees are scientific excellence,
independence, and potential for future research contributions.
While the Peter Harris Award recognizes lifelong accomplishments
and the Richard Bing Award recognizes young investigators, the
Outstanding Investigator Award is targeted at investigators who
are in the intermediate phase of their academic career. [In
this respect, the Outstanding Investigator Award (OIA) is similar
to the Research Achievement Award (RAA); the major difference
between the two is that the OIA is targeted at more junior
individuals, and the RAA at more senior individuals. The
RAA is presented during the ISHR World Congress while the OIA is
given annually.] The winner will deliver a major lecture
and will receive a plaque and an honorarium of $5,000. For

RESEARCH ACHIEVEMENT AWARD (established senior
investigators)
The purpose of this Award is to recognize outstanding scientists
who have a distinguished track record of innovative scientific
contributions that have had a major impact on our understanding
and/or treatment of cardiovascular disease, and who are likely to
continue to make major contributions in the future. This is
a very distinguished Award of international importance that is
bestowed triennially during the ISHR World Congress. The
winner will present a major lecture and will receive a plaque.
The monetary prize for the Research Achievement Award is $20,000.

PETER HARRIS DISTINGUISHED SCIENTIST AWARD (lifetime research achievement) The purpose of this Award is to recognize outstanding scientists who have a long and distinguished track record of innovative scientific contributions that have had a major impact on our understanding and/or treatment of cardiovascular disease. With the inauguration of the Research Achievement Award (RAA), the Peter Harris Award has been focused to recognize and reward lifetime contributions to science. Like the RAA, this is a very distinguished Award of international importance that is bestowed triennially during the ISHR World Congress.
