Donald B. Penzien, Ph.D., a research scientist at the HonorHealth Research Institute, received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Headache Society at its 66th Annual Scientific Meeting in San Diego on June 13.
“This award is the society’s highest honor and is presented to an AHS member, held in high regard from colleagues of the society, in recognition of sustained and substantial service to the society and the field of headache medicine over the person’s lifetime,” according to the AHS.
Penzien is a professor of psychiatry and behavioral medicine, neurology and epidemiology and prevention at Wake Forest School of Medicine, where he is director of research for the Department of Psychiatry and associate director for the Center of Integrative Medicine, a press release explained.
Since 2017, Dr. Penzien also has been a scientific leader and investigator at the HonorHealth Research Institute.
“I'm truly humbled to be even nominated for this honor, let alone to be receiving it,” Dr. Penzien stated in the release. “I distinctly am not a person who seeks accolades or the recognition of my colleagues and peers for my work, and so it is most humbling to be recognized by them in this way.”
“Dr. Penzien embodies our HonorHealth Research Institute values of innovation, excellence, multidisciplinary collaboration, and patient-focused impact,” Dr. Mark Slater, vice president of research for the HonorHealth system and CEO of the Scottsdale-based HonorHealth Research Institute, stated in the release.
