Sponsoring a new IFCC Award

26.10.2016

We are delighted to announce that we are sponsoring the new IFCC Distinguished Award for Contributions to Cardiovascular Diagnostics. This award is aimed at honoring an individual who has undertaken remarkable scientific work with cardiac markers or immunodiagnostic applications in order to improve cardiac disease diagnosis. It will be presented for the first time at the IFCC Congress in October 2017, which will be staged in Durban, South Africa.

This award is one of seven IFCC distinguished awards in total. All of the awards are now open for nominations and the closing date for the receipt of nominations is 31 January 2017. For additional information please go to IFCC Awards Committee 2015-2017.

Continuous commitment towards supporting the scientific community

Our collaboration with IFCC through the sponsorship of one of its awards represents an excellent opportunity for us to continue to show our appreciation for the scientific community. In 2014, we marked our 20th anniversary by presenting the HyTest Cardiac Marker Award. From the shortlist of eight outstanding scientists, the Award Jury, which was chaired by Prof. Fred S. Apple who is now a member of the HyTest Board, selected Prof. Paul Collinson as the winner.

To read Prof. Paul Collinson’s interview and to watch the video recording of his award lecture, entitled “A Cardiac Saga”, please go to HyTest Cardiac Marker Award.
