The L. Rowell Huesmann Award is an early career award named after L. Rowell Huesmann, past ISRA President (1996-1998), ISRA Executive Secretary (1985-1994), and Aggressive Behavior Editor (2004-2012). This award recognizes a significant contribution to aggression research within 10 years of completing a terminal degree (e.g., Ph.D., M.D., J.D.) and is awarded at each biennial World Meeting, where the recipient delivers an address. 

Nominations for this award are due 1 October on odd-numbered years (e.g., 2025, 2027, 2029). Nominations include a recommendation letter (2 pages max) from an ISRA Fellow who is not an Officer or Council Member, a CV, and five publications. Nominations can be sent to the Executive Secretary (bushman.20@osu.edu). Winners will be selected by the ISRA Officers and Council Members. The winner will be announced in the December ISRA Bulletin.
