The Treasury of the Collegium Ramazzini also manages the Irving J. Selikoff Endowment, created by the bequest of Dr. Selikoff as provided in his last will and testament. Funds received from Dr. Selikoff's estate are deposited in interest-bearing investment or trust accounts in federally-insured banking institutions or invested in interest-bearing obligations. Income from these investments is used to provide funds for a Selikoff Award and Lecture, to be given at least biannually, to a scientist or humanist whose studies and scientific achievements contributed to the protection of worker's health.
