The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Board of Directors is pleased to announce that Stephan Grampp, MD, PhD, and Kimberly E.

Each year, the Society chooses two RSNA members—one North American and one non–North American—to receive this award.
The fellowships are 1 month long, beginning in the fall and extending through the RSNA Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting in November. During that time, Drs Grampp and Applegate will live temporarily in Richmond, Va, where they will work with the Editor of Radiology. They will also spend time in the Washington, DC, office of RadioGraphics. Drs Grampp and Applegate will also spend 2
days with the RSNA publications, advertising, and marketing communications staff. A week of the fellowship will be spent working with the RSNA editors at the Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting, which will be held in Chicago’s McCormick Place from November 26 to December 1.
