ROTRF Recognition Prize - Recipients Announced
The Board of Trustees of the Roche Organ Transplantation Research Foundation (ROTRF) is pleased to announce the recipients of the ROTRF Recognition Prize. The prizes were awarded to investigators whose ROTRF-funded projects had a major impact on the field of transplantation and whose achievements best exemplify the mission of the ROTRF. The award-winning projects spanned a wide range of topics, such as induction of tolerance, the role of regulatory T cells and anti-inflammatory molecules in graft acceptance, the role of innate and adaptive immunity in allograft rejection, immunology of CMV infection and T cell allorecognition.
Over the years, the ROTRF has supported many important and innovative projects in basic science and clinical research applicable to the understanding and care of human organ transplant recipients and related tissue transplants. In 2010, the Trustees invited all ROTRF grant recipients to participate in a survey presenting the results of their ROTRF-funded projects. The Trustees had the difficult task of selecting only a number of projects from the abundance of commendable research programmes, and selected 11 outstanding projects to receive an ROTRF Recognition Prize.
The Trustees were very impressed with the overwhelming amount and quality of data and publications produced by ROTRF grant recipients over the years and were pleased to have been able to fund areas of transplantation that are often not funded and young investigators who would have otherwise faced difficulties to pursue their ideas and establish their research programmes. The Trustees also recognise that there are several promising and important projects currently ongoing, which will likely impact on clinical practice in the years to come.
The recipients of the ROTRF Recognition Prize have been invited to present the results of their ROTRF-funded research at the ROTRF Luncheon Satellite Symposium to be held at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, USA on Saturday, 30 April, 2011.
