Fred L. Soper Award for Excellence in Health LiteratureRegionLatin America, North America Deadline DateJune 16, 2008
Offered by the Pan American Health and Education Foundation (PAHEF), this award aims to recognise significant contributions to the health literature in Latin America and the Caribbean and to promote the highest standards of research (specifically, research that emphasises regional impact). Only articles published in scientific journals listed in the Index Medicus or in official Pan American Health Organisation (PAHO) journals are eligible for consideration. Preference is given to studies involving more than one discipline and to papers related to infectious disease, a life-long concern of Dr. Soper. Review papers are eligible if their conclusions deal directly with policy primarily affecting Latin America or the Caribbean. The Award is limited to contributions by authors whose principal affiliation is with teaching, research or service institutions located in the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean.
