AWARDS
Oliver
Cope Meritorious Achievement Award
In
April of 1984, the Council of the American Association
of Endocrine Surgeons created an unusual achievement
award to be given to a Member of the AAES in recognition
of their contributions in the field of Endocrine Surgery
as an investigator, teacher and clinical surgeon. The
first award was given on April 15, 1985 to Dr. Oliver
Cope. In giving this award to Dr. Cope, the Council
decided that from that day forward the award would be
known as the Oliver Cope Meritorious Achievement Award
for the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons.
