Larsen Award


Frances Larsen Memorial Award Winner Announced

Gary E. Pakes, PharmD of Durham, NC is the winner of the Frances Larsen Award for the publication year 2001.

His winning article, “Writing Manuscripts Describing Clinical Trials:  A Guide for Pharmacotherapeutic Researchers,” appeared in the June 2001 issue of The Annals of Pharmacotherapy.

Now in its 12th year, the award contest is sponsored annually by AMWA’s Pacific Southwest chapter to recognize excellence in medical article writing.  As noted by award chair Dove Bunkin, a three-member judging panel faced a considerable challenge due to the high quality of articles submitted.

Next year’s contest will open in the spring; look for flyers in March or April of 2003.
