2024 HIVMA Awards

HIVMA recognizes our members' contributions to advancing the field across the career trajectory and research, prevention, education and care spectrum to help make it possible to envision ending HIV as an epidemic.

 


Help us by nominating your colleague for an HIVMA Award! 



Innovator Award

The Innovator Award recognizes HIVMA members in early or mid-career who have made outstanding and original contributions to HIV medicine in clinical care, provider education, research, or advocacy.  

Nominees must be early to mid-career and be either:

• 45 years of age or younger 

OR

• Achieved no higher than associate professor 

The award will be based on innovation and originality in advancing independent research and productivity, HIV clinical care, provider education or advocacy.


Transformative Leader Award

The Transformative Leader Award recognizes HIVMA members who have transformed the field with demonstrated significant achievement in HIV clinical care, provider education, research or advocacy. Significant achievement will be based on overall achievement and contributions that transcend a single institution and that have impacted patient care within a city, region, state or nationally.


Citation Award

The HIVMA Citation Award recognizes exemplary contributions or service to HIVMA and/or in advancing efforts to end HIV as an epidemic, such as through social justice and public service. In special circumstances, it may be awarded to recognize extraordinary acts by individuals who are not HIVMA members.


We encourage reaching out to HIVMA staff at info@hivma.org if you have any questions regarding eligibility.
