The Alice and C. C. Wang Award in ͵ÅÄ͵¿ú Parasitology

Nominations for the 2026 ASBMB Annual Awards will open in March.

The Alice and C.C. Wang Award recognizes established investigators who are making seminal contributions to the field of molecular parasitology at the time of the award. Novel and significant discoveries on the biology of parasitic organisms are of particular emphasis. The areas of research to be awarded are limited to protozoan parasites but otherwise broadly defined, including but not limited to biochemistry, molecular biology, gene regulation, metabolism, cell biology, development biology and host–pathogen interactions.

Nominations must originate from ASBMB members; however, the nominee need not be an ASBMB member. Nominees should be internationally recognized scientific leaders who have made important discoveries in the field and continue active efforts at the cutting edge of research.

The award consists of $35,000 for use by the recipient’s research laboratory, a plaque and travel expenses for the recipient to attend the ASBMB annual meeting to present a lecture. In addition, the winner will organize a half-day symposium on molecular parasitology at the annual meeting.
