As advances in research are made and Americans are increasingly empowered to understand their own health, it is more important than ever to ensure that media coverage of medical research findings is both accurate and appropriately represented. The Society for Women's Health Research has worked with many journalists over the years to provide information to millions of readers, viewers and listeners. We want to honor those journalists who stand out.

For details on the 2004 media awards program, visit the Society's Web site: http://www.womens-health.org/0javascripts/dropinnav.htm?/press/journalismaward.htm
