This award honors the late Dr. Gary Wasserman, a long-time member and fellow of the AACT who devoted his career to establishing and growing the toxicology program at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri. Dr. Wasserman was passionate about encouraging pediatricians to pursue careers in medical toxicology and clinical pharmacology, and we hope to continue his mission through this award.

The first Wasserman Research Abstract Award winner was announced in 2017.
