2. The report is accepted for publication by a peer-reviewed journal within two years of the NEDS meeting date and contains language indicating that the “case was presented at a meeting of the New England Dermatological Society at (institution) on (date).” 

3. The resident supplies the NEDS Secretary and Administrator with a copy of their final journal acceptance letter, a copy or link to the article manuscript (or published article if available), and their receipt for the purchased medical textbook.

NEDS Case of The Year Awards (2)

The Case of the Year Award is given to the best clinical case presented during the academic year.  $ 500 dollars is awarded to the winning residency training program’s educational fund.

The Century Scholar Award is given to the dermatology resident or trainee in a dermatology rotation who wrote up the case. S/he is given a $500 Amazon gift card toward the purchase of medical textbooks.

IF the case is accepted for presentation at a conference and the trainee travels to present it, an additional $500 dollars will be given to that trainee to help with travel expenses. The writeup must specify that "this case was presented at a New England Dermatological Society Conference at [insert location] on [insert date]." The case must also be accepted within two years of the NEDS conference date in order to receive the travel funding.

If the winner then presents the case at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) in the gross and microscopic session he/she will be given $500 to help with travel expenses.
