Hektoen International is pleased to announce our 7th annual medical humanities essay competition.  We are accepting well-researched articles and personal narratives that relate to medicine, healthcare, and the humanities.  There will be an award of $3000 for the winner and $800 for the runner-up.  Our published articles are read by a large international audience, providing a unique opportunity for both new and established writers.  Please spread the word to students, faculty, and staff that may be interested!  More information and guidelines may be found at www.hekint.org

   We look forward to reading the work of the Perelman/UPenn community!
