Description
The Robert R. Ruffolo Career Achievement Award in Pharmacology is part of the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (ASPET) Scientific Achievement Awards. It recognizes the scientific achievements of established scientists who are at the height of their careers and have made significant contributions to any area of pharmacology. The program is listed under general pharmacology, rather than a single specialized research area.
Established in 2011, the award honors Dr. Ruffolo’s contributions to drug discovery and development. It sits within ASPET’s broader awards program recognizing accomplishments in specific areas of pharmacology and contributions to the discipline as a whole. Its focus is career achievement recognition rather than support for a defined research project.
