Together, we make a difference in toxicology medicine and patient outcomes.
Where Your Support Goes
Jennifer Parker Cote, Emergency Medicine Physician
The publication of my research project, Efficacy of Trypsin in Treating Coral Snake Envenomation in the Porcine Model, would not have been possible without the grant funding from MTF, and the project was instrumental in helping me solidify my goals of completing a toxicology fellowship.
Michael S. Toce, Associate Physician/Assistant Professor in Pediatrics
Receiving the MTF Innovative Research and Teaching Award fundamentally altered my career trajectory by showing me what was possible within pediatric toxicologic research and has ignited a passion for research. I have subsequently investigated anti-epileptic overdoses utilizing the NPDS, examined the use of diagnostic testing modalities in pediatric marijuana overdoses using PHIS, and evaluated patient characteristics associated with pediatric naloxone distribution.

Attending the ACMT Annual Scientific Meeting as an MTF Travel Awardee was an incredibly enriching and memorable experience. It offered me not only access to cutting-edge research and clinical updates in medical toxicology, but also a rare opportunity to connect directly with leading experts and fellow professionals from around the world. The warm welcome extended to awardees made me feel truly valued and included. Being part of such a dynamic, intellectually vibrant environment has broadened my perspective and strengthened my commitment to advancing toxicology in my home institution.
Yanina Guevara, MD, from the University Hospitals & Case Western Reserve University - Cleveland, Ohio, USA
If I had not had the Dr. Michael Shannon Travel Award funding, there was most likely no feasible financial way for me to attend. Beyond the financial support, it provided me a platform to attend. This award made it so I felt valued in a space that often people of color are not often seen. For me, this was the greatest honor of my career so far and I have ACMT to thank for giving me this opportunity of a lifetime.
