In Partnership with Integrative Therapeutics
Scottsdale, AZ (Dec 15th, 2013) – As a forum for the naturopathic community, participation in Naturopathic Doctor News and Review (NDNR) has often been a vantage point for growth, communication and new collaborations within and amongst the naturopathic community. NDNR embraces what is unique to naturopathic medicine in the broader scope of natural medicine. It is in this spirit that we launched the NDNR Student Writer’s Scholarship this past April in partnership with Integrative Therapuetics.
Now the time has come to announce the winners of the First Annual, Naturopathic Doctor News & Review Student Writer’s Scholarship. Winners for both the research review and case study categories will be announced in the up-coming January Gastrointestinal Health/ Toxicology Issue. This year, 37 applicants from each of the seven CNME accredited institutions applied.
Students had the choice of submitting either a research review or a case study as part of their application. Students were also required to shadow and partner with a practicing naturopathic doctor as part of the scholarship, providing them with insight and guidance in the profession. Applicants’ submissions were judged on a rubric by our scholarship committee in four areas: purpose, content, organization, and creativity.
