Prizes & Awards
The Brain & Behavior Research Foundation awards several prestigious prizes to physicians, scientists, and public citizens.
The Foundation's Klerman and Freedman Prizes are awarded annually to Young Investigators for their outstanding contributions to mental health research.
The Klerman & Freedman Prizes recognize exceptional clinical and basic research conducted by NARSAD Young Investigator Grantees. The Prizes are named for Gerald L. Klerman and Daniel X. Freedman, two neuropsychiatry pioneers who played seminal roles as researchers, teachers, physicians and administrators.
The prizewinners are selected by committees of the Foundation’s Scientific Council, a volunteer group of 173 distinguished scientists in brain-related research disciplines.
