ISTH BIENNIAL AWARDS FOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO HAEMOSTASIS

The ISTH Biennial Awards for Contributions to Hemostasis (BACH) are presented during the biennial Congress of the Society.

Initiated in 1982, the Biennial Awards for Contributions to Hemostasis recognize individuals who, in the opinion of their co-workers and peers, have made significant contributions to research and education in blood coagulation.  The awards are presented in two categories:  Distinguished Career Awards and Investigator Recognition Awards.

Five Society members whose accomplishments are internationally regarded as exemplary models of excellence in research and teaching receive the BACH Investigator Recognition Award and five whose career contributions have significantly advanced the scientific community's understanding of the diseases and disorders affecting hemostasis receive the BACH Distinguished Career Award.

The Nominating Committee for the Biennial Awards is comprised of the Society's Senior Advisory Council, 99 distinguished and internationally recognized experts who have previously served as elected members of the ISTH Scientific and Standardization Committee.  Final election of awardees is made by the current members of the SSC.
