Yant Memorial Lecture. The biopathology of cadmium.

Abstract The William P. Yant Memorial Award was established shortly after the death of Dr. Yant, to commemorate his dedicated years of service and pioneering achievements in industrial hygiene. He was for many years affiliated with the Mine Safety Appliances Company, becoming Director of Research and Vice President, and in memory of this service the company sponsors and supports this award under the auspices of the American Industrial Hygiene Association. The award is presented to a person from outside the United States who is outstanding in one or more of the industrial health sciences. The first award was presented in 1965. Enrico C. Vigliani, M.D., is the recipient of the 1969 William P. Yant Memorial Award. Dr. Vigliani is Director and Chairman of the Institute of Occupational Health “L. Devoto” of the Medical Faculty, University of Milano, Italy. Dr. Vigliani is widely recognized for the excellence and the breadth of 'the toxicological research which has been done in his laboratories. A leader in thi...
