Congress Awards

The Society bestows two distinguished Awards at every World Congress to two Society Members who have made outstanding contributions to the DOHaD field. Winners of these Awards each deliver a special plenary lecture at the Society’s World Congress. Nominations are held bi-annually in the spring preceding the World Congress, and may be put forward by any DOHaD Member.

Congratulations to the 2022 Award winners, Peter Nathanielsz and Emilio Herrera!
