Thank you for your interest in the School of Medicine's 2009 annual faculty awards. The deadlines for applications and nominations for the awards listed below have passed. We will begin accepting applications/nominations for the 2010 awards in late 2009 or early 2010.
The Research Mentoring Awards were established in 2009 to recognize faculty members in the Schools of Medicine and Nursing with long-standing excellence in research mentoring.
Excellence can be demonstrated in many ways such as by the
accomplishments of individual mentees, by programs implemented by the
mentor, or by exceptional creativity in mentoring. Three winners will
be recognized each year, one in each of the following categories: 1)
clinically-based research, 2) laboratory-based research, 3)
translational research. Winners will receive a monetary prize.
The Ruth and A. Morris Williams Faculty Research Prize was established to advance research opportunities for younger faculty members (45 years of age or younger, as stipulated in the endowment), and to help publicize the caliber of medical research underway at Duke. The Williams Prize recognizes groundbreaking research in basic or clinical science in alternate years. The 2009 Williams Prize will recognize outstanding contributions in basic science research. Applications are welcome from those in both clinical and basic science departments who are conducting basic science research.
The Leonard Palumbo Jr., M.D. Faculty Achievement Award, established in 1999, recognizes a member of the
School
of
Medicine
faculty who displays dedication to compassionate patient care and excellence in the teaching and mentoring of young physicians. The award was created in memory of Dr. Palumbo through an endowment gift by his brother, Mr. E. Arthur Palumbo (
Trinity
College
’49). The award carries a stipend to further the academic development of the recipient.
The Leonard B. Tow Humanism in Medicine Award is designed to recognize compassion and sensitivity in the delivery of healthcare.
This award is presented annually to a faculty member who demonstrates
outstanding compassion in the delivery of care, respect for patients,
their families, and healthcare colleagues, as well as demonstrated
clinical excellence.
