Get Involved with AAO-HNSF Clinical Practice Guidelines: 2013 G-I-N Conference Scholars Program
Through the G-I-N Scholars program, the AAO-HNSF will fund four AAO-HNS members ($1,500 each) to attend the annual Guidelines International Network (G-I-N) Conference in San Francisco, CA, providing an opportunity for eligible physicians to enrich their understanding of guideline development, dissemination, and implementation. G-I-N aims to encourage partnerships and foster work in the guidelines community, thus supporting evidence-based health care and improved health outcomes throughout the world.
Application and Requirements
Receiving a G-I-N Scholar award also entails a commitment to collaborate with the AAO-HNSF by serving as either a panel member or assistant chair (depending on experience level) on an upcoming guideline panel, enabling recipients to obtain hands-on guideline development experience. G-I-N Scholars also agree to submit a commentary to Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery about a specific aspect of the clinical practice guideline (e.g. development, dissemination, adaptation, implementation, etc.) within three months of publication of the clinical practice guideline.*
The 2013 application submission period is now closed. Please check back in early September 2013 for the 2014 G-I-N Scholars application.
*Residents and previous G-I-N Scholar or Cochrane Scholar recipients are not eligible to apply. Applicants must be members of the AAO-HNS.
