A Century in the Making: 2024 Department of Medicine Annual Awards Soir茅e

Last Thursday, we blew out the candles on our cake, and in the blink of an eye, another year had passed. But with every candle blown comes the chance to make a wish - and we believe each ending is the start of something even better.

We didn鈥檛 just celebrate 100 years of the 91社区 Department of Medicine - we celebrated the strength of our community and all we've accomplished together over the past year. A century of history, full of highs and lows, has shaped this department into what it is today, and we owe our resilience to YOU.

Our deep gratitude goes to the former Chairs of the Department of Medicine, who gathered with us for the recreation of a commemorative photo, capturing just how far we鈥檝e come. Thank you for your leadership and for guiding us here today.

To our faculty, scientists, residents, fellows, division directors, educational leaders and administration - thank you all for making sure this department continues to thrive. Without you, tomorrow鈥檚 successes wouldn鈥檛 be possible.
