No site da Endocrine Society a descrição da premiação:
- Marcello D. Bronstein, M.D., Ph.D. – Outstanding Clinical Practitioner Award.
This annual award recognizes extraordinary contributions by a practicing endocrinologist to the endocrine and/or medical community. Bronstein is the Chief of the Neuroendocrine Unit, Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Hospital das Clinicas and Professor of Endocrinology at the University of São Paulo.
He is also Medical Director and a clinical staff member of Endoclinica de São Paulo, a prestigious private clinic in Brazil, where he treats patients with pituitary disorders. Described as a physician-healer-scholar-investigator, Bronstein has been at the forefront of advancing important questions in clinical neuroendocrinology, including mechanisms underlying dopamine therapy resistance as well as assessing novel molecules for treating pituitary tumors and hormone hypersecretory syndromes. Bronstein’s discovery for the utility of exploiting gonadal steroid regulation of growth hormone in the treatment of acromegaly has spawned a new vista of therapeutic opportunity for safely lowering insulin-like growth factor 1.
