The Paul I. Terasaki Clinical Science Award was established in 2003 to honor an individual, group, or institution in recognition of significant accomplishments an/or contributions to the fields of clinical transplantation, histocompatibility, and immunogenetics. This award was made possible by a grant from the Paul I. Terasaki Foundation. In recognition of the scientific contributions to the field of immunogenetics and transplantation immunology made by Dr. Bernard Amos, the "Distinguished Scientist Award" has been 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.
