The Arthur C. Guyton Distinguished Lectureship Award was instituted in 2006 to recognize outstanding and cutting edge research in physiology or related areas. Awardees are invited to attend the ACDP fall meeting and present a seminar on their research.
Awardees are selected by the President in conjunction with members of Council based on membership recommendations. They receive travel, hotel, food, complimentary registration and an honorarium of $1,000.
The Award was named for the late Arthur C. Guyton, University of Mississippi, a well-known researcher, educator, author, and long-time department chair. He was the only person to be awarded both the ACDP Outstanding Teaching Award and the ACDP Distinguished Service Award.
