Nothing in here even suggests that anything the nominee has done has any proven results in helping survivors recover. More proof that the WSO is not for survivors.
Big fucking whoopee.

Distinguished Professor Michael Chopp, of the Department of Physics, has been selected by the World Stroke Organization to receive the Barbro B. Johansson Award. The award of € 10,000 (about $11,000) will be presented at the biennial World Stroke Congress 2016, to be held October 26-29 in Hyderabad, India.
The World Stroke Organization is the world’s leading organization in the fight against stroke, with over 2000 members from 85 countries. The award is given to a WSO member working in the field of stroke recovery research.
Chopp’s laboratory at Henry Ford Hospital has trained over 20 graduates of Oakland University’s Biomedical Sciences: Medical Physics PhD Program. He gave last year’s Sigma Xi Lecture at Oakland University, talking about his research in remodeling the nervous system post stroke and neural injury-enhancing neurological recovery.
