In recognition of Dr. Patriquin's commitment to international education, this fellowship is designed to subsidize the expenses of one Pediatric Radiologist per year who practices outside of North America.Award specifications: Funding will be provided to partially defray the cost of attendance at the Annual Meeting of the Society for Pediatric Radiology. The annual fellowship award will be capped at $3,000.
