Rimoin has written articles for more than 410 peer-reviewed publications and his book, Emery and Rimoin's Principles and Practices of Medical Genetics, is in its fifth edition.

Among his achievements, Rimoin recently designed a unique genetic screening program to test for four common inherited disorders within the Persian Jewish population, including anesthesia sensitivity, a salt-losing disorder, a multiple hormone deficiency and hereditary muscle disorder. "The Western Society of Clinical Investigation selected Dr. Rimoin from a number of truly remarkable candidates from across the western United States as the 2011 Mayo Soley Awardee based on his outstanding medical research achievement and mentorship over four decades," said Hal Yee, M.D., Ph.D., immediate past president of the Western Society of Clinical Investigation.
