At its annual conference, the Society recognizes a scientist in the field of neuroendocrine tumor research who has contributed greatly to the study of diagnosing and treating the illness. The following scientists have been awarded this prize:

Life Achievement Award 2010

Enrico Solcia of Pavia, Italy, was awarded the 2010 ENETS Life Achievement Award for his work in the pathology of neuroendocrine tumor disease. The award was presented to him on 12 March 2010 in Berlin, Germany, by one of his former students, Guido Rindi, who also happened to be chairman of the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society from 2008 until 2010.

Life Achievement Award 2007

Lars Grimelius of Uppsala, Sweden, received the Life Achievement Award at the 4th Annual ENETS Conference in Barcelona in 2007.

His colleague, Kjell Öberg, presented the award, highlighting Prof. Grimelius enthusiasm for the silver staining of argyrophil cells and how this paved the way for much that would follow up to today's NET research.

Life Achievement Award 2006

The 2006 Life Achievement Award was conferred in absentia on Dame Julia M. Polak of London, who is distinguished by her formidable merits in NET research, as well as in research on tissue engineering.

Martyn Caplin of London presented the award to Dame Julia at her office in London in February 2006, and she then gave a short presentation of her research and demonstrated her clear enthusiasm for the field.

This presentation was filmed and shown to the delegates at the 3rd Annual ENETS Conference in Prague in March 2006.
