John F. Kurtzke, MD Clinician-Scientist Development Award

THE FOUNDATION LOOKS BACK WITH FOND MEMORIES OF DR. JOHN F. KURTZKE

Since 2010, we have partnered with the CMSC and AAN to support the John F. Kurtzke, MD Clinician-Scientist Development Award to support a clinician scientist’s research related to MS.  This three-year award recognizes the importance of good clinical research and encourages young investigators in clinical studies.  Dr. Kurtzke was a leader in the research and clinical care of MS and was noted for his development of seminal measurement scale of MS disability effect (EDSS).

Dr. Kurtzke has also been honored by a medical student research scholarship in his name for the past several years.  If you would like to make a tribute contribution to FCMSC in Dr. Kurtzke’s memory, please CLICK HERE.
