Ragavan, Houtrow Receive APA Award

Congratulations to Maya Ragavan, MD, MPH, MS, and Amy Houtrow, MD, PhD, MPH, for their awards from the Academic Pediatric Association (APA). 

Ragavan was awarded the APA Research Award – Early Career which recognizes an individual who, through their research, the investigator has epitomized the mission of the APA and contributed significantly to the general health of children in such areas as understanding mechanisms of health and disease, methods of education, and innovative ways of providing children’s services, especially in the setting of vulnerable populations. 

Houtrow was awarded the APA Public Policy and Advocacy Transforming Award. This award recognizes an individual whose public policy advocacy efforts at the state, regional, national, and international level have improved the health and well-being of infants, children and adolescents. 

Both will be highlighted at the APA Membership Meeting in May this year for their awesome achievements for infants, children, and young adults. Please join us in congratulating both amazing doctors.
