IOF Grants and Awards

IOF is proud of its support for young investigators working in osteoporosis research. Since 2000, IOF has awarded the IOF-Servier Young Investigator Research Grant at the IOF World Congresses on Osteoporosis held in Lisbon, Rio de Janeiro and Toronto. A grant will also be awarded at the upcoming congress in Bankgok, December 2008.

In 2006 IOF also presented the first IOF Medal of Achievement, which will be awarded every two years during the IOF World Congress on Osteoporosis to a scientist who has significantly advanced the field of osteoporosis through his/her original and outstanding scientific contributions.
