He has served as an editor for top transatlantic endocrine journals and is currently the editor-in-chief of the Endocrine Society’s journal Endocrine Reviews.
He also is an excellent global educator and has mentored and taught endocrinologists from around the world. He won the Endocrine Society’s 2020 Outstanding Mentor Laureate Award for these efforts.
ESE’s President Jérôme Bertherat said, “I am extremely pleased that Ashley Grossman is our 2025 Award winner. He is not only an extremely highly regarded clinician scientist but also a valued mentor to many in our field. His contribution to shaping endocrinology across the globe has helped improve patient care and the development of endocrinology as a whole.”
Grossman’s research interests revolve around the development of endocrine tumors, including adrenal, pituitary and neuroendocrine tumors. His contributions to endocrine research are reflected in his authoring over 550 peer-reviewed journal articles and 450 book chapters and invited reviews.
He is currently collaborating with endocrinologists in Washington, D.C., and Germany on research on the diagnosis, management and molecular analysis of pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas, two types of rare neuroendocrine tumors.
“I am honored to receive this award for my transatlantic contributions to the field of endocrinology,” said Grossman. “I am passionate about fostering more collaboration between endocrinologists across the Atlantic and look forward to continuing my work in the space.”
Grossman will present his award lecture at the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting, ENDO 2025, which will take place from July 12-15 in San Francisco, Calif.
Nominations for the 2026 Transatlantic Alliance Award will open March 1, 2025.

A hearing aid for … your nose?
2025-01-30
Kaboom! The first time most of us hear the sound of an explosion is in the movies. Encountering the sound in the real world—even at a distance—has a profoundly different effect. Why? It’s all about context. How we react to sounds and other sensory stimuli depends on how they’re presented. We often don’t know how we’ll respond to something until we experience it. And the sensation is sometimes quite different from what we expected. So, the brain has to adjust quickly.

Borrowing nature’s blueprint: How scientists replicated bone marrow
2025-01-30
Hidden within our bones, marrow sustains life by producing billions of blood cells daily, from oxygen-carrying red cells to immune-boosting white cells. This vital function is often disrupted in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation, which can damage the marrow and lead to dangerously low white cell counts, leaving patients vulnerable to infection.
Now, researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Engineering and Applied Science (Penn Engineering), Perelman School of Medicine (PSOM) and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have developed a platform that emulates human marrow’s ...

Research recently published in The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis reveals that politically connected companies were significantly more likely to receive valuable exemptions from the tariffs imposed on U.S. imports from China during the Trump administration.
The authors, Veljko Fotak (SUNY Buffalo), Grace Lee (Fordham University), William Megginson (University of Oklahoma), and Jesus Salas, associate professor of finance (Lehigh University), found that companies that made substantial investments in political connections to Republicans prior to and during the beginning of the Trump administration were ...
Walk like a … gecko? Animal footpads inspire a polymer that sticks to ice
2025-01-30
A solution to injuries from slips and falls may be found underfoot — literally. The footpads of geckos have hydrophilic (water-loving) mechanisms that allow the little animals to easily move over moist, slick surfaces. Researchers in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces report using silicone rubber enhanced with zirconia nanoparticles to create a gecko-inspired slip-resistant polymer. They say the material, which sticks to ice, could be incorporated into shoe soles to reduce injuries in humans.
Slips ...
