Meritorious Achievement
Award
2008 Awardee
 The Meritorious Achievement Award is given to members of ACGIH® who have made outstanding, long-term contributions to the field of occupational health and industrial hygiene. The recipient of this year's Meritorious Achievement Award is Michael S. Morgan, Sc.D., CIH.
Dr. Morgan earned his doctoral degree in Chemical Engineering from MIT and received post-doctoral training in Respiratory Physiology from Harvard School of Public Health. He has spent 33 years teaching environmental health science and studying the human responses to inhalation of air contaminants, including combustion products (sulfur dioxide and sulfate particles), ozone, and volatile solvents. Dr. Morgan has supervised the graduate research projects of 65 students in industrial hygiene and toxicology, including four Ph.D. recipients. His research program in pharmacokinetics and biological monitoring of organic solvents is funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
Dr. Morgan is the author of over 65 peer-reviewed publications. He is a member and past Chair of the Biological Exposure Indices Committee of ACGIH®, and serves as Editor in Chief of the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Hygiene, a joint publication of ACGIH® and AIHA.
Dr. Morgan's dedication and service to the occupational health and industrial hygiene profession, and his commitment to ACGIH®'s mission render him a worthy recipient of the Meritorious Achievement Award. The Meritorious Achievement Award will be presented at the ACGIH® Membership Reception and Annual Meeting of the Membership on Sunday, June 1, 2008.
