Recognize Your Colleagues with Nominations for Prestigious ACS Awards
July 8, 2025
The ACS Honors Committee is inviting members to submit nominations for six prestigious awards. The Committee is particularly interested in nominations of candidates from a wide range of surgical specialties and geographical locations, especially for Honorary Fellowship.
Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis and considered annually for selection:
- Distinguished Service Award
- Jacobson Innovation Award
- Lifetime Achievement Award
- Honorary Fellowship
- Distinguished Lifetime Military Contribution Award
- Sheen Award
Nominations must be received by August 25 in order to be included on the next Honors Committee meeting agenda. Nominations received after that date will be held for future consideration.
Visit the Honors Committee web page for details on submitting a nomination for the awards, or use the above links to read about a specific award, submit a nomination, and see a list of past recipients.
Note: Nominations do not automatically lead to selection, and not all awards or honors are presented annually.
