Arthur C. Guyton Distinguished Lectureship Award
ACDP is pleased to announce that the 2023 Arthur C. Guyton Distinguished Lecturer Awardee is Merry L. Lindsey, Ph.D. (Meharry Medical College)
The Arthur C. Guyton Distinguished Lectureship Award was instituted in 2006 to recognize outstanding and cutting edge research in physiology or related areas. Awardees attend the ACDP Leadership Retreat and present a seminar. Awardees are selected by the President in conjunction with members of Council based on membership recommendations. 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.
