Dr. Morris Simon, the namesake of this important research convocation, pioneered health services research, outcomes improvement, safety measures, technology development, and computer applications in healthcare.  

He is also remembered for his vast contributions to population health and the development of the Simon Nitinol cava filter. Since his passing in 2005, Dr. Simon has remained a cherished pioneer within our imaging community. 

The Department of Radiology would also like to thank Olga Brook, MD, MBA, Radiology Research Vice Chair, for coordinating another superb celebration of our trainee research efforts!
