The Clinical Endocrinology Trust (CET) Award is given for clinical research that addresses aspects of endocrinology at the forefront of clinical practice. The award is sponsored by the Clinical Endocrinology Trust, and consists of an honorarium and a prize medal. The winner is invited to give a lecture at the annual European Congress of Endocrinology.

Wiebke Arlt is the William Withering Chair of Medicine and Director of the Institute of Metabolism and Systems Research at the University of Birmingham. As a clinical endocrinologist she works at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, where she leads the adrenal and reproductive endocrine specialist services.

Wiebke has studied Medicine at the University of Cologne before moving to the University of Würzburg for specialist training in Endocrinology and Internal Medicine, under the auspices of Bruno Allolio. This was followed by postdoctoral training at the University of California at San Francisco with Walter Miller. In 2002, she moved to Birmingham to work with Paul Stewart and has stayed there ever since, initially as a Heisenberg Senior Fellow, then as a Medical Research Council UK Senior Fellow and from 2006 as a Professor of Medicine.

Wiebke leads a large, multi-disciplinary research group working on steroid biology and biochemistry and its translational applications, with a special focus on androgens, both in the context of rare adrenal and gonadal disorders and common disease associated with adverse metabolic risk, such as polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal incidentaloma.
