Walter Spohn Trust (WST)

The Walter Spohn Trust (previously the Walter Spohn Educational Fund) was established in 2003 to provide financial support to individuals initiating educational and research projects to advance the field of Anaplastology. Walter Spohn's enthusiasm for his profession and passion to share his knowledge with others lead to the founding of the American Anaplastology Association in 1980, which has expanded to become the International Anaplastology Association in 2008.

Today, the WST is working to achieve its goals through its supportive programing and special events, which includes:
  • Anaplastology Student Scholarship Program
  • Anaplastology Research Grant Program
  • IAA Presentation Awards Partnership Program
  • BCCA Partnership Program
  • The OtoArt Fundraising Auction
  • The Worthwhile Mile Fundraiser
