CINP Awards
Max Hamilton Memorial Prize
Max Hamilton, M.D., F.R.C.P., F.R.C. Psych., D.P.M. (1912 – 1988) is best known for his assessment of depressive illness through psychometrics. The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression is widely used throughout the world, and his 1960 paper on the problem of measuring the severity of depression is probably the most cited medical publication in the second half of the twentieth century. The recipient of the 2012 award will be chosen by an international scientific jury by March 2012. This prize consists of a monetary award and an engraved plaque, to be presented at the 28th CINP Congress in Stockholm, Sweden.
