ANNOUNCEMENTS
THE AMERICAN DERMATOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL FUND, INC. ANNUAL ESSAY CONTEST
The American Dermatological Association Research and Educational Fund, Inc. is again offering awards for the best essays submitted for original work, not previously published, relative to some fundamental aspect of dermatology or syphilology. The purpose of this contest is to stimulate investigators to original work in these fields. Two cash awards are available as follows: One thousand dollars for first place and four hundred dollars for second place. Manuscripts typed in English with double spacing and ample margins as for publication, together with illustrations, charts and tables, all of which must be
in quintuplet, are to be submitted NOT LATER THAN OCTOBER 1, 1962 The manuscripts should be sent to Dr. Wiley M. Sams, Secretary, American Dermatological Association Research and Educational Fund, Inc., 308 Ingraham Building, Miami 32, Florida. Those which are incomplete in any of the above respects will not be considered. Manuscripts should be limited to ten thousaiid words, or less. In order to aid fair judgment, papers should be submitted under a nom de plume with no information anywhere in the paper as to the institution or clinic where the work was done. Along with the paper by "John Smith," for example, a plain sealed envelope bearing the nom de plume, plus the full name and address of the author, is also submitted. Only after all of the papers have been judged and returned to the Chairman are the sealed envelopes opened and the winners known. Competition in this contest is open to scientists generally — not exclusively to physicians. Members of the American Dermatological Association are not eligible.
The awards will be made by the Essay Contest Committee of the American Dermatological Association Research and Educational Fund, Inc. and its decision shall be final. The essays are judged on the following considerations: (1) originality of ideas; (2) potential importance of the work; (3) experimental methods and use of controls; (4) evaluation of results; (5) clarity of presentation. This contest is planned as an annual one, but if in any year, at the discretion of the Committee, no paper worthy of an award is offered, the awards will be omitted. The results will be announced prior to December 1, 1962. Essays receiving first and second places are the exclusive property of the American Dermatological Association Research and Educational Fund, Inc.; those not winning an award remain the property of the authors and will be returned. The candidate winning a first award may be invited to present his paper before the annual meeting of the American Dermatological Association with expenses paid, in addition to the one thousand dollar award. The time allowed for presentation of the winning essay shall not exceed thirty minutes. Further information regarding this essay contest may be obtained by writing to the Secretary of the American Dermatological Association Research and Educational Fund, Inc. 383
XII International Congress of Dermatology The XII International Congress of Dermatology will be held in Washington, D. C. during the period September 9—15, 1962. The Scientific Session, the opening ceremonies, and most of the social activities will be held either at the Park Sheraton or the Shoreham Hotel. Ex-
tensive plans for this meeting are in progress. A preliminary information booklet will be mailed to all members of the International League of Dermatological Societies approximately
one year before the meeting. Dr. Donald M. Pillsbury of Philadelphia is President of the Congress and Dr. Clarence S. Livingood of Detroit is the Secretary-General. The general theme of the Congress will be the Application of Advances in Basic Sciences to Clinical Dermatology, to reflect the marked expansion of basic research related to the skin which has occurred during the past decade. A majority of the main papers and introductory discussions will be given by invitation. Three teams of simultaneous translators will function throughout the Congress. Free discussions must be related to the main topics. All applications for places on the program should be sent with a 150-word abstract to the Chairman of the Scientific Program Committee, Dr. Donald M. Pillsbury, Duhring Laboratories, University Hospital, 36th and Spruce Streets, Philadelphia 4, Pennsylvania, U. S. A. This may be in any of the four official languages of the Congress (English, French, German and Spanish), but an accompanying English translation, where indicated, will insure accuracy and facilitate prompt consideration. Final arrangements for presentations and formal discussions on the programs for the various topics will be made upon recommendation of the Chairmen of the respective subcommittees for each topic. Additional periods for Free Communications will be provided insofar as possible. SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM XII INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF DERaIATOLOGY, 1962
