Each fall SAj makes an appearance at AMERSA’s annual conference. Included in our is the presentation of three annual awards: Best Peer Review, Most Downloaded Manuscript, and Best Manuscript.
For Best Peer Review we seek to recognize reviews that were thorough, that considered the article within the context of current addiction literature, and provided specific recommendations for improvement or clarification to authors.
We are delighted to announce that the award for Best Peer Review 2018 goes to Gwen T. Lapham, PhD, MPH, MSW.
Dr. Lapham is an assistant investigator at Kaiser Permanente Washington Health Research Institute and an affiliate assistant professor in the Department of Health Services at the University of Washington. She is a Co-Investigator in the Health Systems Node of the NIDA CTN involved in several projects and an addictions health services researcher focused on improving care of substance use in medical settings. She is currently focused on understanding cannabis use, for medical and nonmedical reasons, among primary care patients and improving substance use care for adolescents seen in these same settings.
Congratulations Dr. Lapham, and thank you to all of our reviewers. SAj would not be possible without your contributions to our field.
