At the annual meeting, AMP honors individuals at various stages of their careers through several prestigious awards. This year's award winners will be announced online and in the November issue of JMD.
AMP's highest award, the AMP Award for Excellence in Molecular Diagnostics recognizes lifetime pioneering and special achievements by professionals in the fields of molecular biology, molecular pathology, pathology, genetics, microbiology and basic medical sciences, especially as these achievements relate to molecular diagnostics and molecular medicine.

The Minority Trainee Travel Award is sponsored by the American Society for Investigative Pathology (ASIP) through the Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) Program of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB), funded by a grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences, National Institutes of Health [FASEB MARC Program: T36-GM08059-28]. It is designed to promote the entry of under-represented minority scientists into the mainstream of the basic sciences community and encourages the participation of young pathologists who are planning a (bench science) research career in the AMP 2011 Annual Meeting.
Successful applicants will be reimbursed up to $1,650 in travel costs associated with conference attendance and participation. These funds are meant to defray lodging, air travel, ground transportation, and meeting registration.
