The ASE Foundation is delighted to announce a brand new award, the Michael H. Picard Research Award. This award has been established to honor Dr. Picard’s five years of stellar service as Editor-In-Chief of the Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography (JASE) and is supported by a grant to the ASE Foundation by Elsevier. The annual award of $1,000 will be given to the overall highest scoring abstract submitted to the annual ASE Scientific Sessions by a trainee. Thank you, Dr. Picard, for your years of service to JASE and ASE.
Please join us in congratulating the inaugural Michael H. Picard Research Award recipient, Alex D’Amico, MD, from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Division of Cardiology in Birmingham, AL. This award, along with many other ASE Foundation supported research awards, travel grant, and scholarships, will be recognized during the 2023 Awards Presentation on Saturday, June 24, from 8:00 – 10:00 AM ET at the ASE Scientific Sessions.
