The annual Bioactive Materials Lifetime Achievement Award was established in 2021 to recognise excellence in research and development in the field.

It is presented to the person judged to have demonstrated excellence and leadership in bioactive materials, including basic science and translation to practice.

Nomination and Selection Process

Each year, the general bioactive materials community is invited to nominate suitable award candidates. Nominees should be world leaders in the field of bioactive materials, whose accomplishments in discovery and translation to practice are unsurpassed.

  • Nominations should consist of the nominee's curriculum vitae and a letter of nomination.
  • Seconding nomination letters are recommended.
  • All candidates are placed on a ballot, which is then considered by the selection committee (a distinguished panel of international judges). The candidate with the most points is chosen as the Lifetime Achievement Award winner.
