FNIH Awards Ceremony

For over a decade, the FNIH has been recognizing and elevating the work of exceptional early-career scientists at this annual event through the prestigious Lurie Prize in Biomedical Sciences and the Trailblazer Prize for Clinician-Scientists. Our unique ability to convene the best and the brightest to form innovative and impactful public-private partnerships is highlighted by the Charles A. Sanders, M.D. Partnership Award, presented to an organization or individual who has exemplified steadfast commitment to our mission.

We invite you to join philanthropists, NIH leadership, our partners from industry, scientists, academia, thought leaders and key stakeholders to celebrate scientific achievement and collaboration at this year’s Awards Ceremony. With your support, the FNIH can do more to build bridges to biomedical breakthroughs, power emerging scientists, and improve the quality of patients’ lives around the world. We hope you will join us and make an early commitment at one of the sponsorship levels outlined here.
