Academy of RV Tucker Study Clubs President's Award. Dr. David Thorburn.

Dr Thorburn is immediate past-president of both the Academy of RV Tucker Study Clubs and the American Academy of Gold Foil Operators. He merits this award particularly for the teaching and special efforts he makes in promoting the cause of gold as a restorative material. For many years, David provided patients from his own practice for the course in gold foil given at the University of British Columbia and taught by Dr Gerald Stibbs, and later by Dr Richard D Tucker. David carried these courses on his shoulders for a long time and, though he is still an active member of the Walter K Spoule Gold Foil Study Club, he spends considerable time at the University of British Columbia teaching anyone interested in learning the procedures of direct gold and gold castings.
