SMDM Award Programs
The Society encourages outstanding work by young investigators.
Trainee achievement is recognized by the annual presentation
of the Lee B. Lusted Student Prizes for outstanding presentations
of research at the Annual Meeting. The Young Investigator
Award is presented annually for the best paper published
by a trainee or junior faculty member. The newly established
Career Achievement Award recognizes seminal work in medical
decision making. The Eugene Saenger Award for Distinguished
Service recognizes exceptional efforts in support of the
Society. In 2002, we introduced the Eisenberg Award in
recognition of exemplary leadership in the practical application
of medical decision making research.
