ASHI has two scientific awards to recognize and financially support early-career investigators, innovation scholars, and research. Learn more about each award including eligibility, project scope, and application details and deadlines. 

EARLY CAREER INVESTIGATOR AWARD

The aim of the Early Career Investigator Award (ECIA) is to support future research leaders who are committed to conducting impactful basic or translational science research. This program offers ASHI members an award of up to $40,000 for research related to histocompatibility or immunogenetics in various disciplines such transplantation, cancer, autoimmunity, infectious disease, disease association, or pharmacogenomics.

INNOVATION SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS

The goal of the Innovation Scholarship Award is to recognize and further a significant body of work in the fields of HLA, immunogenetics and/or transplant immunology as demonstrated by publications, educational initiatives and/or developed translational tools and analyses. Each of three recipients will receive a $1500 honorarium. These awards will be presented in the ASHI annual meeting when distinguished candidates are identified.
