By means of a generous offer from the Lucien Appel Foundation for Neuroradiology,
it has been possible to fuse the two awards, ESNR Scientific Award and Lucien
Appel Prize in neuroradiology, into one major annual scientific award "Lucien
Appel Prize of ESNR". The last step in this process was taken on September
14th 2003 when the General Assembly of ESNR approved the mechanism by which
the funds can be made available to ESNR and the Awards Committee of ESNR.
The first "Lucien Appel Prize of ESNR" was presented during
the ESNR Annual Congress in Barcelona 2005. The "Lucien Appel Prize
of the ESNR" will reward the achievements of a young neuroradiologist
under the age of 40 years. This Scientific Award is open to all candidates,
independent of nationality, member or non-member of the ESNR. The prize,
which will be given annually, is of the amount of € 4000.
