Awards

Each year, Texas Children's Hospital bestows faculty and researchers with the following awards:

• Research Mentor Awards: This annual award recognizes our faculty for their outstanding dedication and passion for mentoring students, residents, fellows, and junior faculty. In 2019, we expanded this recognition to include the valuable contributions of junior faculty.
   
• Young Investigators Award: In 2019, the Department of Pediatrics created this new award program to celebrate the research accomplishments of our junior faculty. To be eligible for this award, faculty must be in the rank of Instructor or Assistant Professor and, must have served for at least 5 years as a faculty member in the department.
