AOAC INTERNATIONAL | WILLIAM HORWITZ AWARD

WILLIAM HORWITZ AWARD

AOAC INTERNATIONAL's most prestigious Association award, the William Horwitz Award, was established in 1995 to honor the extraordinary contributions to AOAC INTERNATIONAL made by William Horwitz, and to continue to honor those individuals who show extreme dedication and commitment to the Association. Today's Association is largely a product of Dr. Horwitz's lifelong commitment and untiring work in the scientific, administrative, and political arenas on behalf of AOAC. The award is not an annual award, and will be presented only when a truly qualified candidate is identified.

Recipients of the William Horwitz Award receive:

Complimentary lifetime membership in AOAC INTERNATIONAL;

A plaque presented at the Annual Meeting; and

Expenses incident to attending the Annual Meeting at which the award is presented.

Nominations for the Award:

Any Member may submit a nomination, which must include a detailed written description of the nominee's significant contributions to AOAC INTERNATIONAL. The nomination must be endorsed by at least 25 Members of AOAC. Of this number, at least one must be from each of the Sections of AOAC. Nominations are accepted on an on-going basis. Nomination forms are available from the AOAC INTERNATIONAL office.

The Selection Process:

The AOAC INTERNATIONAL Board of Directors reviews nominations and selects recipients for the award by unanimous vote.
