The Alice G. Brandfonbrener Young Investigator Award, (AGB Award), is given to an investigator in recognition of recently completed original research. The recipient is either still enrolled or is a recent graduate of an educational, training or residency program. The research and paper is usually the result of one of the first significant studies made by the author. The research and paper is not previously published to be considered for this award.
A $300 honorarium is awarded to the recipient of the AGB Award. In addition, a stipend is provided for travel expenses to the Symposium on Medical Problems of Performing Artists to present the paper.
At the Symposium, the time allotment for presentation is 25 minutes for the lecture and an additional 5 minutes for questions. The President of PAMA will introduce the award winner and present the award.
