ASTMH Distinguished International Fellow
ASTMH Distinguished International Fellow formally recognizes up to eight individuals who have made eminent contributions to a particular aspect of tropical medicine/global health or hygiene. The nominee is expected to have made seminal contributions to tropical medicine/global health or hygiene over their career, as evidenced by publications, public health policy, and/or education work that have changed understanding of disease, changed health outcomes or developed capacity for tropical medicine/global health or hygiene work. Distinguished International Fellows typically acquire these accomplishments over several decades of work. Prior to 2013, this recognition was known as "Honorary Member."
Nominations are limited to non-U.S. citizens. Individuals who maintain dual citizenship are not eligible. Self-nomination is not allowed. The individuals recognized by the ASTMH Board as meeting this exceptional standard are publicly acknowledged at the Annual Meeting.
ASTMH Distinguished International Fellow is conferred in recognition for outstanding accomplishment in a career. Beginning in 2024, recipients will not receive complimentary membership to ASTMH, nor will this recognition carry the right to vote in ASTMH elections, per the Society’s constitution and bylaws. Additionally, recipients no longer receive complimentary registration to attend the Annual Meeting.
