One way the Hydrocephalus Association<\/strong> promotes research and leadership in hydrocephalus<\/strong> is through our annual Resident\u2019s Prize<\/strong>. This prize is awarded each year to the most promising hydrocephalus-related research paper presented by a neurosurgical resident at the Pediatric Section meeting of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons\/Congress of Neurological Surgeons (AANS\/CNS)<\/strong>. The prize is designed to encourage young doctors to focus their research efforts on advancing the treatment and care of individuals with hydrocephalus.<\/p>\n

HA is pleased to announce the 2011 winner: Ashley G.
