ADF Awards

The ADF announces various prizes to reward scientists / researchers from the field of dermatological research. In addition to the Paul Langerhans Award for established researchers and the Egon Macher Award for young investigators outstanding works in the field of allergy research (ADF / ECARF Award of European Allergy Research) and oncology (Dermato Oncology Junior Scientist Award) will be honored on the ADF Annual Meetings.

In addition, the best posters will be awarded with a poster prize.

ADF/ECARF-Award for European Allergy Research

- The Allergy-Award is supported by the European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARD) -

The “European Center for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF)” located at the Department of Dermatology and Allergy, Charité Berlin and the ADF want to foster research activities in the field of allergy. Therefore, they announce the “ADF/ECARF-Award for European Allergy Research” donated by ECARF.
The award is in endowed with 5.000,- Euros every year.

The selection of the awardee is done by the jury during the ADF annual meeting. The award will be given to a study-group or a group of collaborators which conducted the research with combined efforts. The award can also be given to non-members of the ADF. Studies in which a member of the jury serves as the first or the last author will not be considered.

All abstracts (poster or presentation) submitted in time to the annual meeting of the ADF will be considered. 

The awardee is asked to publish a short report at the ADF home journal Experimental Dermatology.

Board of trustees:

  • Prof. Dr. Torsten Zuberbier (Vorsitzender)
  • Prof. Dr. Tilo Biedermann
  • Prof. Dr. Nicolas Hunzelmann
  • Prof. Dr. Claudia Traidl-Hoffmann
