Description

The Pharos Poetry Award aims to encourage medical students to write meaningful poetry related to health or medicine. Authors must be enrolled in medical schools that have an active Alpha Omega Alpha Chapter or Association, but need not be members of Alpha Omega Alpha. However, if an applicant is a member of Alpha Omega Alpha, he or she must have active status. Poems must be written while the student is in medical school, must be the work of a single author, and must represent original work. The poem may be on any subject related to health or medicine. Please visit the award's website for more information.
