# AAAS David and Betty Hamburg Award for Science Diplomacy

The AAAS David and Betty Hamburg Award for Science Diplomacy (2022-) formerly the AAAS Award for Science Diplomacy (2010-2021) and Award for International Scientific Cooperation (1992-2009), is awarded by The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). After the 2021 presentation, the award was renamed in honor of psychiatrists David A. Hamburg and Beatrix Hamburg.
