Carrington Award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the Star Trek universe, the Carrington Award is one of the most prestigious honors granted by the Federation in the field of medicine, and is generally regarded as a lifetime achievement award. Five nominees are selected by the Federation Medical Council every year.
The Carrington Award is first mentioned in the DS9 episode, Prophet Motive.
In a line cut from The Die is Cast, Vice Admiral Toddman noted to Julian Bashir that he was "in trouble", because the Admiral had bet two cases of Saurian brandy that he was going to win the Carrington Award that year. Toddman told Bashir: "You lost, which means I lost. And I don't like to lose."
