Kyei receives Young Physician-Scientist award

Award recognizes young physician-scientists with notable research achievements

July 27, 2016

George Kyei, MBChB, PhD, an assistant professor of medicine at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, has received a Young Physician-Scientist Award from the American Society for Clinical Investigation.

Kyei, whose research focuses on HIV medicine and infectious diseases, received the honor in April during a joint meeting in Chicago of the American Society for Clinical Investigation, the Association of American Physicians and the American Physician Scientists Association.

The award recognizes young physician-scientists whose work is supported by National Institutes of Health (NIH) training grants or similar career-development funding, and who have recently joined the faculty at an academic medical center and have had notable achievements in research.
