Bachmann-Strauss Prize


As part of our alliance with The Michael J. Fox Foundation, BSDPF has established The Bachmann-Strauss Prize for Excellence in Dystonia Research to broaden public awareness and recognize key scientific discoveries in dystonia. This annual award of $100,000 will honor a researcher who has made profound contributions to the field of dystonia through cutting-edge research, a past body of work or both.
