At this year's Canadian Society of Otolaryngology Annual Meeting in Quebec City, Dr. David Forner, won top prize at the Poliquin resident research competition. This was the first year that all papers were judged together (i.e. not basic science and clinical research separation), which means the competition was more fierce.
