Susan P. Baker Student Paper Prize 2009 To recognize the work of students in the injury field, the UNC Injury Prevention Research Center will award $250 to one or more student authors of outstanding research paper(s) on an injury topic for the 2008-2009 academic year.
Papers must be unpublished and describe the results of a research project or program evaluation on any topic of intentional or unintentional injury with public health or health care implications, such as: domestic violence, youth violence, child abuse, farming or other work-related injuries, motor vehicle crashes, fires and burns, falls, poisoning, and sports injuries, etc. Papers may focus on the epidemiology, prevention, rehabilitation, acute care or biomechanics of injury. Anyone who has been enrolled for any length of time since June 2008 in an undergraduate, graduate or professional school degree-granting program in North Carolina is eligible to apply. (A student may have graduated from the degree-granting program, but must have been enrolled in the program during the past academic year.) Papers will be reviewed by a panel of injury researchers and judged on: originality, methodological soundness, contribution to the field, and clarity of presentation. A letter from the faculty advisor must accompany the submission, verifying that the student assumed primary responsibility for both the research and the writing of the manuscript. See the following links for additional information on the guidelines that accompany this award. Flyer
