APA invites nominations for its Jack Weinberg Memorial Award for Geriatric Psychiatry.

Submissions must include six copies of a letter summarizing the accomplishments of the nominee, two letters of endorsement from APA members, a current curriculum vitae, and bibliography.

The deadline for nominations is July 31. Submissions should be sent to Kristin Aulie, Staff Liaison, Council on Geriatric Psychiatry, APA, 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 1825, Arlington, Va. 22209. More information is available from Aulie at kaulie@psych.org.
