The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) offers this award to recognize advanced practice providers (APPs) early in their neurology careers for excellence in patient care and commitment to the Academy. It honors clinical contributions rather than funding a specified research study or project.
The award emphasizes early-career impact and potential, including contributions to patient care or practice innovation, leadership, and professional growth. Applicants are asked to reflect on their commitment to advancing neurology and their future goals. Recipients receive a monetary prize and honorary plaque, with recognition at the AAN Annual Meeting and in AAN member publications.
