ROCKVILLE, MD – February 8, 2024 – The American Association for Anatomy (AAA) is honored to announce its 2024 awards recipients. Eighteen of the association’s 2,455 members have been selected because they advanced AAA’s values: community, respect, inclusion, integrity, and discovery.
The AAA awards program provides over $650,000 in awards, research grants, and scholarships annually. Many recipients go on to achieve significant success in their careers.
"We, as anatomy educators, are driven by passion: for anatomy, our students, and advancing the field through scholarship,” said Dr. Charys Martin, 2023 Basmajian Award Recipient and Professor at the University of Western Ontario’s Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry. “Being recognized by my AAA idols, mentors, and peers is a cherished honor, reaffirming my commitment to fostering curiosity, deep understanding, and innovation in anatomy education.”
This year’s awards and individual recipients include:
Early-Career Investigator Awards
Fellows
Early-Career Anatomist Publication Awards
Additional biographical information on each award recipient can be found on the AAA website. Award recipients will be recognized at the Anatomy Connected Conference in Toronto, Canada, this March.
