This award honors James G. Wilson, one of the founding members of the Society for Birth Defects Research and Prevention when it was established as the Teratology Society in 1960. The award is presented in recognition of the best paper accepted or published in the journal Birth Defects Research during the prior year. The dual purpose of the award is to provide recognition to the author(s) of the best paper and to encourage authors trained in various disciplines to submit high-quality papers to Birth Defects Research.
