Donald Oken Fellowship

Home / Awards / Donald Oken Fellowship

How to Apply

Application will open in Summer of 2022.

Each year the American Psychosomatic Society recognizes the achievements of one Consultation-Liaison psychiatrist or internist by name a Donald Oken Fellow and inviting that person to participate in the Annual Meeting.

The Oken Fellow typically is someone who has never attended an APS Annual Meeting – a goal of this award is to introduce the Society to someone unfamiliar with APS and our community, and to nurture a relationship that benefits both the Fellow and the Society’s membership through the sharing of experiences and involvement with research – both clinical and basic.

The Award Includes:

  • Complimentary registration to the Annual Meeting
  • Itemized travel expenses to the Annual Meeting
  • $1,000 honorarium
  • The opportunity to participate in a meaningful way in the life of the meeting, and by extension, the Society

Criteria for Nominees:

  • Senior leadership position in his or her field and able to influence other APS prospective members
  • Preferably, not previously attended an APS meeting
  • Involvement in clinical or basic research
  • Effective teacher/leader to medical students, residents, and fellows

Additional Requirements:

  • The recipient will be expected to attend the entire annual meeting
  • The recipient will be expected to stay at the conference hotel
  • The recipient will be required to participate in the meeting by presenting a paper, poster, or attending a workshop or roundtable lunch as appropriate
