HMS offers this resource to assist faculty to identify and search for appropriate distinguished prizes and awards, to explain the nomination process for different classifications of awards, and to increase the number of Harvard Medical School faculty who are nominated for awards. Depending upon the prize, Harvard Medical School Faculty should follow the links below to understand the nomination process for different types of distinguished prizes.
