Rita Schaffer Young Investigator Award

Biomedical Engineering Society

In honor of former BMES Executive Director, Rita Schaffer, the Society established the Rita Schaffer Young Investigator Award in 2000. Rita Schaffer's estate gift — along with contributions from her family, friends, and associates — enabled BMES to create this award.

Each year, BMES offers the Rita Schaffer Young Investigator Award to stimulate research careers in biomedical engineering. The award recipient will deliver a 20-minute lecture at the BMES Annual Meeting in the fall and publish an article in the Annals of Biomedical Engineering.
