2022 Golden Goose Awardees

Congratulations to our very own National Scientist Lourdes J. Cruz and Corresponding Member Baldomero M. Olivera!

NS Cruz and CM Olivera are two of the extraordinary scientists who received this year’s Golden Goose Award for their remarkable discovery that hidden in cone snail’s potent venom is a non-opioid pain reliever. Their contribution to science is a powerful new tool for studying the central nervous system and significantly improving access to medicine in areas affected by supply chain issues, demonstrating the power of ingenuity, diligence, and innovation.
