Medical Anthropology Prize Announcement

The Society for Medical Anthropology (SMA) announces the year 2002
competition for the Rivers Undergraduate Student Paper Prize and the
Charles Hughes Graduate Student Paper Prize. The Rivers and the Hughes
competitions focus on student achievements. The Rivers Prize will be given
for the outstanding paper in medical anthropology written by an
undergraduate student; the Hughes Prize will be awarded for the best paper
written by a graduate student. Both prizes carry a $250 cash award, and the
journal Medical Anthropology Quarterly will have the right of first refusal
on winning manuscripts.

Five copies of entries for the Rivers and Hughes prizes must be postmarked
by June 15, 2002. They should not exceed 20 double-spaced pages, not
including bibliography. Details about the author, including social security
number, should be included in a cover letter, not in the manuscripts
themselves. Winners will be announced at the 2002 SMA annual business
meeting in New Orleans.
