Health Sciences Author Recognition Awards

The Health Sciences Author Recognition Awards honors faculty, staff, and emeriti authors for their published research and scholarly contributions to ECU health sciences programs. This awards ceremony celebrates impact and accomplishment and supports the role of health sciences to ECU’s broader mission.


The awards program was created in 2005 to pay tribute to our many authors who have expanded and enriched the scholarly culture of our university and the reputation of ECU health sciences programs through the publication of peer-reviewed works. We are pleased to host this event to celebrate their academic achievements.

The William E. Laupus Health Sciences Library and the Friends of Laupus Library will host an awards ceremony in November. Additional event information will be communicated closer to November.

So rarely are faculty members publicly recognized for their written scholarly endeavors. I encourage everyone to participate in this program.
