The International Xenotransplantation Association has developed the Agnes Azimzadeh Award to recognize significant contribution to the field of xenotransplantation by a woman, in honor of the contributions of Agnès M. Azimzadeh, PhD, to the field. This biennial award was established specifically by IXA council to support and foster female researchers who are building their career in Xenotransplantation, or to recognize their accomplishments.
The Award will include a travel award for the recipient to attend the biennial IXA meeting in order to present a named invited lecture and may include an additional honorarium.
The recipient of this award is chosen 6-8 months before each biennial IXA Congress by a vote of IXA Council/IXA Awards Committee from candidates nominated by a Council member or by a member of the Association in good standing. The Azimzadeh Prize will be awarded at the biennial meeting of the IXA, after delivery of the invited Azimzadeh Prize Lecture by the awardee.
