The International Association for Dental Research is calling for nominations for its Distinguished Scientist Award. The deadline for submissions is September 4, 2012.

The Science Awards Committee selects awardees from among the nominations of renowned scientists submitted by IADR members. The Committee consists of the Science Awards chair and the subcommittee chair for each award. The subcommittee members are composed of the previous award recipients. Appointments are made annually for a period of 5 years on a rotation basis.

Any IADR member may nominate a candidate for a science award. Once a nomination is made, it is considered each year for 5 years unless the nominee is selected for an award during this period. After the fifth year, the nomination is withdrawn unless a re-nomination is received.
