Sven-Eric Jordt, Ph.D., receives Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers from President Bush
Thursday, November 1, 2007
Sven-Eric Jordt, Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmacology, received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), for his research on the effects of environmental irritants in airway diseases and inflammation. The awards were presented at a ceremony in Washington, D.C., by John Marburger, Science Advisor to the President and Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy.
The Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers, established in 1996, honors the most promising researchers in the Nation within their fields. Nine federal departments and agencies annually nominate scientists and engineers who are at the start of their independent careers and whose work shows exceptional promise for leadership at the frontiers of scientific knowledge. Participating agencies award these talented scientists and engineers with up to five years of funding to further their research in support of critical government missions.
Dr. Jordt was nominated by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), directed by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
