After 21 entries and 1 week of oral presentations, the 2024 Radiology Research Week has come to a close.
Held from November 18 to 22, Radiology Research Week aims to improve visibility for imaging research in the Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging, as well as the broader UVA School of Medicine. Over 4 days, trainees and junior faculty their radiology research across topics ranging from basic science to clinical to educational.
The department also awarded 5 winners among 4 categories: Best Overall, Best Basic Science, Best Clinical, and Best Educational. The Best Overall winner received $1000 to support travel and research expenses, while each category winner received $500.
The winners were decided by judges and UVA Radiology faculty members Stuart Berr, PhD; Klaus Hagspiel, MD; Arun Krishnaraj, MD, MPH; Jaime Mata, PhD; John Mugler, PhD; Joseph Rispoli, PhD; Alan Ropp, MD; and Mark Williams, PhD.
Below are the winners of the 2024 Radiology Research Week. Congratulations!
