BERNARD AMOS DISTINGUISHED SCIENTIST AWARDIn recognition of the scientific contributions to the field of immunogenetics and transplantation immunology made by Dr. Bernard Amos, the "Distinguished Scientist Award" is being renamed the "Bernard Amos Distinguished Scientist Award". This award was established in 2001 to honor a distinguished ASHI scientist, who like Dr. Amos, has made significant contributions to our field. Dr. Amos' research career started in the laboratory of Dr. Peter Gorer in 1952. His work in the mouse system laid the foundation of understanding of the H-2 antigenic system that was felt to be the major barrier to transplantation. Subsequently, while at the Roswell Park Memorial Hospital he developed a skin grafting model of tissue rejection which, with his work on leukoagglutination assays, helped lead to the discovery of the major histocompatibility complex in humans. 2025 Jill Hollenbach, PhD, MPH
