Paul C. Hodges Excellence Award

The Paul C. Hodges Excellence Award is bestowed upon those individuals whose careers have been defined by outstanding achievement in the field of Radiology through accomplishments in education, research, leadership and/or service to the profession; exceptional service to the Department of Radiology at the University of Chicago may also be considered as a sole criterion for the Award.

Hodges Society Members may nominate individuals for the Award; nominees must be members of the Hodges Society (i.e., any physician or scientist who has spent at least one year in training in the Department of Radiology at the University of Chicago, or who has served on the clinical or basic science faculty of the Department).  Only nominations that are accompanied by a statement indicating the merits of the nominee(s) will be considered; although the statement may be brief, we encourage you to provide as much information as you can in order to justify your nomination.

Nominations are to be collected through October 15th after which the names will be distributed to the selection committee.  A final decision will be rendered at the Hodges Society Board Meeting in late November.  The Award will be presented at the annual Hodges Society reception during RSNA week of the following year.

You may provide a nomination by clicking here.  Please include a brief statement indicating the merits of the nominee.
