The OHDSI Titan Awards serve to recognize those who have gone above and beyond to foster community engagement, lead research and development efforts, and make significant contributions towards OHDSI’s mission.
Individuals, teams or collaborating institutions can be nominated for an award. Each nomination must include the nominee’s name, organization, email and a short paragraph describing why the collaborator(s) should be nominated for that award. Nominations will be accepted until 8pm ET Tuesday, Sept. 9, 2025.
You may make as many nominations as you would like; the nominators will be kept anonymous. Titan Award Winners will be announced at this year’s OHDSI Symposium, which will take place Oct. 7-9 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
