ADLM Merit Awards

The Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (formerly AACC) celebrates outstanding contributions to medicine through its annual awards program, which culminates with formal recognition at the the Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (ADLM) Annual Scientific Meeting.

Most awards go to those in the laboratory field, but some, such as the Wallace H. Coulter Lectureship Award, are often given to people from other disciplines.
