Antonios G. Mikos has been selected for the Controlled Release Society’s (CRS) 2011 College of Fellows Award for his landmark contributions in material and drug delivery research that has brought about significant advances to the field of tissue engineering.

The College of Fellows Award, the most prestigious level of membership of CRS, credits decades of Mikos’ efforts in the research, development, and testing of many biomaterials for injectable delivery or implantation to aid in the repair or replacement of damaged tissue due to disease or trauma. He will be presented with the award during the society’s Annual Meeting & Exposition at the Gaylord National Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland, June 31-July 3.
