CDC awards
A number of prestigious awards were given out in May at the 27th Annual Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) Conference held in Atlanta, Georgia.

Dr Etienne Krug, EIS officer in the Division of Violence Prevention at the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, won the ultimate award—the Langmuir Prize, named after Alex Langmuir who started the EIS Program. This award is for the most outstanding manuscript in public health, and the first time the award has gone to a scientist doing work in violence prevention. Dr Krug won this award for the project he conducted to collect and analyze international comparison data on firearm injury mortality. It will be published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
