APIC ANNOUNCES 2011 ELAINE LARSON LECTURESHIP AWARD RECIPIENT
Washington, November 29, 2010 – APIC-The Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology today announced Richard P. Wenzel, MD, MSc, of Richmond, Va., as the 2011 recipient of the Elaine Larson Lectureship Award. Presented annually by APIC’s Board of Directors, the award honors the individual best able to present a lecture on the state of the science of infection prevention and control and/or healthcare epidemiology in the area for which he or she has been a major contributor over a lifetime of pursuit.
Dr. Wenzel is one of the leading infectious diseases and healthcare epidemiologists in the world, having established his reputation in the field of infection prevention and control in hospitals. His research work has focused on the epidemiology of healthcare-associated infections, especially prevention and treatment of bloodstream infections, sepsis, surgical site infections and prevention of cross transmission by hand hygiene. Dr. Wenzel is also a nationally recognized expert on antibiotic resistance and its impact.
He served as chairman of the Department of Internal Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Va. from 1995-2009. He was also president of the Medical College of Virginia Physicians, the clinical practice plan for more than 600 physicians, from 2003-08. In 2001, the National Institutes of Health named Dr. Wenzel one of the 10 “Great Teachers” in the category of Clinical Medicine Service. He is also the founding editor of two journals: Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology and Clinical Performance and Quality Health Care. Having served on the Editorial Board of the New England Journal of Medicine from 1992-2000, he was named the Journal’s first Editor-at-Large in 2001.
“APIC is proud to honor Dr. Wenzel with this special award to recognize not only his important contribution to the field of infection control and epidemiology, but also his superb leadership and teaching,” said APIC 2011 President Russell Olmsted, MPH, CIC, epidemiologist in Infection Prevention & Control Services, St. Joseph Mercy Health System, Ann Arbor, Michigan. “Through his remarkable achievements and mentorship of others, he has had a significant and lasting impact on improving the safety and quality of patient care. Dr. Wenzel’s invaluable scientific contributions to our field reflect well on the namesake for this lectureship and are in perfect alignment with the theme of APIC’s 2011 Annual Conference, ‘Translating Science—Sustainable Solutions.’”
A former president of the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America and a former councilor of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, Dr. Wenzel is a member of the American Society of Clinical Investigation, the Association of American Physicians, and a charter member of the Surgical Infections Society.
