Nominations must be received by Aug. 1. You may send the completed nomination form by scanning it and emailing it to Abbey Ruggiero, faxing it to her attention at 919-833-2023 or mailing it to her at P.O. Box 27167, Raleigh, NC 27611.

The award honors Mr. Anderson’s service to medicine and the Society, having served as NCMS legal counsel from 1937 until his retirement in 1983. Nominations must be made by an NCMS member.
