NCMIC Foundation announces McAndrews Award recipient

Chiropractic Economics April 3, 2019

Sportelli and English - McAndrews Award
NCMIC Advisory Committee President Louis Sportelli, DC, with award winner Cynthia English

NCMIC Foundation announced Cynthia English is the 2019 recipient of the Jerome F. McAndrews, DC, Memorial Research Fund Award. The presentation of the award was made on March 15, 2019, at the Association of Chiropractic Colleges Educational Conference and Research Agenda Conference (ACC-RAC).

English was recommended for this award for:

  • Advancing the exchange of information;
  • Promoting high ethical standards in the Gallup organization;
  • Researching the practical application of chiropractic;
  • Advancing the information available to the public and the chiropractic profession.

English was part of the three-year Gallup organization study, 2018 Gallup-Palmer College of Chiropractic Annual Report: Managing Neck and Back Pain in America. As a result of English’s involvement, the chiropractic profession was able to glean meaningful data about consumers’ perceptions of chiropractic care.

The report highlighted the extent that neck and back pain affect American adults. Nearly two-thirds (65%) of consumers reported seeing a health care professional for significant neck or back pain at some point in their lives. The report also detailed Americans’ preferences for neck and back pain care providers and the prevalence of various treatments. According to the report, roughly one-fourth of U.S. adults said they saw a chiropractor within the past five years.

The Jerome F. McAndrews, DC, Memorial Research Fund was created by the NCMIC Foundation to honor McAndrews’ longtime support of the scientific and practical advancement of the study of chiropractic by recognizing a worthy researcher or research group.

Past recipients of this award are: Brent David Leininger, DC, MS (2018); William Weeks, DC, MS (2016); North Carolina Employee Health Plan Research Study Group (2015); Robert Mootz, DC (2014); James Whedon, DC, MS (2013); Pierre Côté, DC, PhD (2011); Deborah Kopansky-Giles, DC (2010); Sidney Rubinstein, DC, PhD (2009); and Simon Dagenais, DC, PhD (2008).
