ASCRS National Media Awards

ASCRS established the National Media Awards program in 1995 to acknowledge achievement in promoting a greater public understanding of colon and rectal disease, such as colon cancer, hemorrhoids, diverticulitis, and Crohn's Disease.

Each year, the Society presents awards honoring the best work in three major media categories: Print (newspaper or magazine, Broadcast (television or radio), and Internet (information created for a general audience and presented exclusively on the Internet).

Winners receive a $1,000 cash prize, personally engraved plaque, and an expense-paid trip to the ASCRS Annual Meeting.
