Nominate a researcher for the DDA Awards 2021

Does one of your fellow early-career researchers deserve acknowledgements for her/his diabetes research?

At the DDA Annual Day (8 December 2021), DDA will give out the two DDA awards to talented early-career researchers.

All members of DDA can nominate candidates for the DDA Awards 2021 (of each 25,000 DKK):

• Young Investigator Award: This award is presented to an early-career researcher, below the age of 40, who is engaged in diabetes research in Denmark, and who has shown promising research and made an important contribution to the understanding and treatment of diabetes.
