Nominations are open for the 2025 RSNA Rising Star Award. The education-focused honor was established to recognize the outstanding contributions and innovative work of early-career radiologists who are shaping the future of radiology education.

Nominations are encouraged from radiologists with a range of experience levels from one- to 10-years post-residency. Consideration will be given to nominees who demonstrate sustained commitment and achievement in at least two of the following four areas:

  • Education leadership
  • Community outreach
  • Radiology education and volunteer activities
  • Innovation in radiology education.

Eligible nominees must be RSNA members. Nominations must include a one-page personal statement that focuses on work and achievements in the areas of education leadership, community outreach, radiology education, volunteer engagement and innovation in radiology education.

The Rising Star Award will honor a maximum of 12 radiologists (nine domestic and three international) who are employed by an academic institution with a teaching hospital, or who operate as part of a broader medical institution.

Rising Star awardees will receive sponsorship from RSNA staff, guidance on best practices for delivering presentations and serving as a volunteer, invitations to networking opportunities, and will have their names added to the RSNA Speaker Engagement Database.

Do you have the experience needed to earn the RSNA Rising Star Award? Submit your nomination no later than Jan. 31, 2025.
