CASW Victor Cohn Prize for Excellence in Medical Science Reporting
"CASW established the Victor Cohn Prize for Excellence in Medical Science Reporting in 2000. Given annually, the prize seeks to honor a writer for a body of work published or broadcast within the last five years which, for reasons of uncommon clarity, accuracy, breadth of coverage, enterprise, originality, insight and narrative power, has made a profound and lasting contribution to public awareness and understanding of critical advances in medical science and their impact on human health and well-being."
The honoree receives an award of $3,000, presented at the NASW/CASW ScienceWriters conference in October.
