The presentation of original research from around the world is an integral piece of ASE’s Annual Scientific Sessions. Each year, a group of early career abstract presenters are selected by the Abstract Chairs based on the scientific merit of their research projects to receive a stipend to support their attendance at the annual meeting. In 2018, the Alan S. Pearlman Research Award was established in honor of Dr. Pearlman’s ten years of service as JASE Editor-in-Chief and recognizes the highest scoring early career investigator. New in 2023, the Michael H. Picard Research Award was established to honor Dr. Picard’s five years of service as JASE Editor-In-Chief. Supported by a grant to the ASE Foundation by Elsevier, this annual award of $1,000 will be given to the overall highest scoring abstract submitted to the annual ASE Scientific Sessions by a trainee.
