The 2008 Donald B. Doty Education Award

Through a generous grant from Medtronic, the WTSA has established the Donald B. Doty Educational Award with the 2005 Award of $10,000 being accorded to a group at the University of Utah, Salt Lake City. The purpose of the award is twofold:

  • To foster innovative educational initiatives in cardiothoracic surgery by WTSA members, and
  • To provide an opportunity for the dissemination of this information to other training centers and academic institutions.

Award
Following the review of applications by the WTSA Council, the successful applicant will be notified by June 28, 2008, awarded an education grant of $10,000, and be able to start his/her project immediately. It is expected that the activities associated with the award will be completed by June 15, 2009, and that the awardee will provide both a written summary report as well as a brief oral report at the time of the 2009 WTSA Annual Meeting, June 24 - 27, 2009, at the Fairmont Banff Springs in Banff, Alberta, Canada.

Eligibility
Active and senior members in good standing of the WTSA are eligible to apply.

Applications
Applicants must complete the WTSA Donald B. Doty Education Award Application Form and submit the form to the WTSA Administrative Offices no later than May 23, 2008.
