The Society of Toxicologic Pathology (STP) has honored Arun Pandiri, lead of the Molecular Pathology Group at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), with its inaugural Mid-Career Excellence Award. The award was presented during the STP Annual Symposium in Baltimore.
Pandiri, who has been with NIEHS for 15 years, was nominated by Robert Sills, of the Division of Translational Toxicology (DTT). “Arun is the epitome of an outstanding scientist," said Sills.
“He is leading several noteworthy research activities and mentoring the next generation of scientists to address important public health problems using cutting-edge technologies,”he added.
“I’m grateful for the recognition by the top professional organization in my specialty,” said Indian-American Pandiri. “I feel it reflects the excellent team science at DTT, and I’m lucky to be working in such a collaborative and encouraging environment that provides so many opportunities for career advancement.”
Pandiri’s research focuses on identifying molecular signatures of exposures in rodent models of cancer and human tumor samples resulting from suspected exposures. His team is also investigating potential factors implicated in early-onset colorectal cancers.
Pandiri previously received the STP Distinguished Early Career Award in 2014. His continued contributions to the field have now earned him the Mid-Career Excellence Award, which recognizes members who have made outstanding contributions in toxicologic pathology in the middle phase of their careers.
The STP Mid-Career Excellence Award, introduced in 2024, aims to acknowledge significant achievements and contributions to the field of toxicologic pathology by mid-career professionals. Nominees for this award must be active members within 11-20 years of their last relevant training and have distinguished themselves as leaders in industry, government, education, and/or public service.
