The award includes a diploma and USD 800. Carina won the award for her presentation about the project “The Risk of Dementia in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease: A Nationwide Cohort Study”. The conference had 30,000 attendees and, as far as is known, it is the first time that someone from abroad has won the price.
