International Headache Academy (IHA) Research Award
The American Headache Society’s International Headache Academy (IHA) was designed to inspire a long-term commitment to headache medicine in young neurologists and research scientists via an educational program focused on clinical and research aspects of headache medicine. It is the continued goal of the Society to raise the level of education and improve patient care while attracting young clinician scientists to a career in headache medicine.
To this end, a number of small research awards are available to selected IHA participants who have submitted an optional research proposal. The International Headache Academy Co-Chairs will review and select recipients who will present their findings at the following year’s Annual Scientific Meeting.
