Excellence in Oral Clinical Presentation Award

Home / About SVU / Awards / Excellence in Oral Clinical Presentation Award

The award was established as the Clinical Innovation Award in 1994, discontinued in 1998, and revived in 2005 as the Excellence in Oral Clinical Presentation Award. This award is presented to a member who is the primary author and presenter, or sponsored by a member in good standing, of an oral presentation at the SVU Annual Conference. The five oral clinical abstracts receiving the highest number of points in the Abstracts Subcommittee’s selection process are eligible. Their manuscripts must be received by a date to be decided upon by the Awards Subcommittee Chair.
