TMA Young Physician Section Young at Heart Award

History

The TMA Young Physician Section Young at Heart Award was implemented in 1992 to recognize a TMA physician member or group of TMA physician members who have provided exceptional guidance and support to the Section or to young physicians in general.

Nominees for the award must be TMA members who are not eligible for Section membership and whose support and guidance have strengthened the YPS. This can be through 1) organizational aid; 2) support of YPS issues in leadership arena; and/or; 3) support of YPS leadership development, e.g., promotion of YPS leaders. Nominations for this annual award must be made by a YPS member. The award winner will be selected by the Young Physician Section Executive Council at Winter Conference and the award will be presented at the House of Delegates during TexMed.
