A certificate, along with a $1,000 honorarium in honor of Joseph E. Whitley, MD, is awarded annually by the Association of University Radiologists (AUR) to the radiologist who submits and presents the best manuscript on a subject related to radiologic education. Whitley Award scientific presentations on teaching have become a vital factor in helping the AUR to continue its premier role as a forum for educational research and innovation in radiology. The AUR Committee on Teaching urges all members to consider submission for the 1997 award. To be eligible for the award, the topic of the paper must be predominantly education in radiology. The educational issue investigated may relate to any level--graduate, undergraduate, or postgraduate. The criteria for evaluation will include originality of the concept, clarity of the manuscript, experimental design, importance to teaching, and validity of outcome. Finalists will be invited to present their works in an expanded format at a Whitley Award judging during the 1997 meeting of the AUR in Dallas, TX. Educational papers not invited for the judging session may be considered for presentation at one of the several other educational sessions of the meeting.
