For the first time, the NAPCRG programme committee have invited applications from primary care researchers who have yet to yield findings. The 'Late-Breaking High Impact Research Category' is a new option for researchers intended for high impact and/or large studies that are in the process of gathering data, and will have data collection and analysis completed in time for presentation at the fall meeting.

Grace Moran won the Distinguished Paper Award this year. This is the first year of the award which selects authors from the top twenty rated abstracts and reviews their publications.
