Nominations for the Research Award may be made by the candidates themselves or by others on their behalf. Nominations are submitted on the Research Award Nomination Form [PDF], which must be received by March 1.
Criteria for the Award. The nominee should be an active scientist in psychosomatics but does not need to be a psychiatrist. The scientific work of the nominee should be predominantly clinically focused. Note that the award is not a lifetime achievement award, and contributions to APM are not a factor in the selection of the recipient. An individual may receive this award only once.
Grading of Candidates. The APM Research Committee reviews the submissions and grades the candidates on the following:
 Original research papers published, particularly as first/last author, in high-impact, peer-reviewed journals.
Being the principal investigator on grants, with federal grants receiving the most weight.
Importance of research contributions to the field of psychosomatics.
Mentorship of junior investigators in psychosomatic medicine.
Effective dissemination of research findings to change policy or practice.
To apply or recommend an individual for the Research Award, complete the Research Award Nomination Form [PDF] and mail or fax to the chair of the Research Committee at the address on the form by March 1.
