Dr. Lindberg's continuous commitment to the field has dramatically altered the scope and extent of informatics' practice and research. The Donald A.B. Lindberg Award for Innovation in Informatics recognizes an individual at any stage of a career for a specific technological, research, or educational contribution that advances biomedical informatics in honor of Dr. Linberg. The contribution recognized will have advanced the field for example in the form of a significant innovation or a unique approach and contribution to education or training, but not for a lifetime body of work.
