2010 Hydrocephalus Association Resident’s Prize

2010 Resident’s Prize Awardee is Announced

Dr. Eskandari

Every year, the Hydrocephalus Association awards a resident’s prize in neurology/neurosurgery to the most promising research paper relating to hydrocephalus.  The paper is presented at the Pediatric Section meeting of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons/Congress of Neurological Surgeons (AANS/CNS).

The prize for 2010 went to Ramin Eskandari, MD, MS, for his paper:  ‘Effects of Early and Late Reservoir Treatment in Experimental Neonatal Hydrocephalus’.
The prize is awarded by a panel of experts from the AANS/CNS Pediatric Section and reflects the opinions of some of the best minds in pediatric neurosurgery and related disciplines.

Congratulations to Dr. Eskandari and all of the candidates this year.  They reflect the best and most forward-thinking elements of the neurological community as well as our hopes for better treatment options and eventually, perhaps, a cure for hydrocephalus.
