This award was established in 1998 in memory of Professor Henri Horoszowski, former chairman of the Musculoskeletal Committee. The award was established to encourage musculoskeletal specialists to become involved in Hemophilia care.
Presenters of any free papers selected for inclusion in each Musculoskeletal Congress and each MSK program of the WFH Congress are eligible for the award, with two exceptions:
- current or past members of the MSK Executive Committee are not eligible.
- previous winners of the award are not eligible.
Presentations are judged on Scientific Methodology, Originality, Relevance and Quality of the presentation by a panel of judges appointed by the MSK executive.
