Leadership Scholarship

The SCORCH Leadership Scholarship is an initiative designed to provide a platform for current and prospective leaders in the field of pediatric radiology to engage and learn from the collective membership of the Society.  The Scholarship will afford its selected recipients to attend and speak at a SCORCH Annual Meeting.  This professional development opportunity will serve as a supplement to the recipients’ clinical training and current leadership skills. 

2019 marks the inaugural year of the Scholarship, which is being bestowed in memory of Dr. John D. Strain, who served as the SCORCH President from 2002-2004.  Dr. Strain was dedicated to educating and developing future leaders in the field of pediatric radiology.  The leadership and members of SCORCH are honored to pay homage to Dr. Strain through the SCORCH 2019 Leadership Scholarship.
