Lifetime Achievement Awards
Lifetime Achievement Awards
The Indian Cartilage Society (ICS) gives the ICS Lifetime Achievement Award occasionally to a very renowned person who has done extraordinary work to propagate the science of cartilage repair and regeneration in his region or in his country or in the world. A specific consideration is given to the person, who has contributed extra-ordinarily, to serve the aims and objectives of Indian Cartilage Society. It is a very rare award, and it is given only by the executive consideration of the Indian Cartilage Society. There is no process of formal application for this award as this award is chosen internally. The lifetime achievement award reflects the Indian Cartilage Society’s commitment to praise all those who are committed to the science of joint preservation. It is not necessary to be a member of ICS to receive this award.
