Prize for the advancement of allergy research

Since 2005, ECARF has awarded (together with the German Society for Dermatology Research, or ADF) the ADF/ECARF Award for European Allergy Research.

With the goal of promoting achievement in dermatology research, the 5,000-euro prize is awarded yearly.

All submissions for the ADF's annual meeting are automatically entered for the prize (posters/presentations).  The jury considers each entry during the course of the annual meeting. Entries with a jury member as senior author or first author are not considered for the prize.

The ADF is the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Dermatologische Forschung, or German Society for Dermatological Research.
