AWARDS AND HONORS

Recipient of the Scientific Presentation Award: American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy, 1984.

Environmental Protection Agency Grant Award between 1981-1983 on human lymphocyte responses to carcinogenic chemicals. Co-investigator with Dr. Lawrence Alfred.

NIH MBRS Grant Award between 1982-1985 on the effects of environmental chemicals on cell mediated immune functions. Principal investigator with Dr. Lawrence Alfred.

NIH National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases between 9/30/90 - 3/31/91. Phase I study of binding allergens to liposomes for immunotherapy.

1999 Award by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration’s Office of Research and Development, Washington D.C. to conduct a study on whether a one-year treatment of doxycycline administered to patients with Gulf War illness who are mycoplasma positive, can improve functional status in comparison to similar patients treated with a placebo.

Testimony in the U.S Senate:

Dr. Vojdani appeared before the US Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs on November 16, 1993 to provide testimony relative to immunological studies on blood samples of Persian Gulf War veterans and controls. His findings indicated that some of the veterans who had been exposed to chemical agents while serving in that war had neuroimmunological disorders. This testimony was instrumental in winning the passage of a law, initiated by Chairman of the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs, Senator J. D. Rockefeller on November 22, 1993 that would provide free medical care to Persian Gulf War veterans.
