	The E.O. Martin Award is the highest honor bestowed annually upon an individual by the AAPS. The award is named after E.O. Martin, D.O., FAASS, who founded the AAPS (originally known as the American Association of Osteopathic Physicians) in 1952. Every year, the E.O. Martin Award Committee honors an individual who has made a significant contribution to the AAPS, affiliated Academies of Medicine and Boards of Certification, the medical profession, and the community.</p>
