Beni Solow Award a Beba Verna

19 Novembre 2005
Cari amici della SIBOS � con soddisfazione e con orgoglio che diamo notizia dell�assegnazione del �Beni Solow Award� alla nostra amica, socia, collega e connazionale Prof.ssa Carlalberta Verna, per noi semplicemente Beba. Prima di riportarvi notizie pi� precise inerenti il premio vi rammento che la Verna non � nuova a tali imprese, infatti ha vinto in precedenza anche il Premio Nazionale SIDO e lo Houston Award. Al momento non c�� ricercatore od altro ortodontista italiano che abbia fatto meglio e, come ho gi� avuto modo di dire altrove, per noi � un onore oltre che un piacere avere Beba in SIBOS, come iscritta e come portatrice del Suo sapere ogni volta che lo vorr�.
Grazie Beba.
