The Elle Foundation began issuing awards for excellence in the year 2000, to showcase novel innovation by those changing the recovery landscape, to say thank you and to provide hope for addicts still suffering. The first award recipient was Dr. Deborah C. Mash, a neurology professor and neuroscientist at the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami, and the founder of what was at that time the largest brain bank in the world. She is famous for her discovery of the coca-ethylene molecule and the nor-ibogaine metabolite. Dr. Mash was studying RNA while the rest of the world was getting excited about DNA.
