This award is intended to recognize both clinical and non-clinical faculty members demonstrating significant and impactful contributions to the community at large and/or the medical profession as a whole.

This new award recognizes innovative contributions by a team. We encouraged nominations for multi-disciplinary teams (where at least one team member is part of the Department).
