Exceptional Teachers Honored

Steve Gilbert

The Program in Medical Education presented the 2008 Teaching Awards to 11 faculty members and one staff member on May 12 in the TMEC amphitheater. In his opening remarks, HMS dean Jeffrey Flier (right) stressed the importance he places on medical education and described taking part in an awards ceremony that honors teaching a “pure joy.” That sentiment was echoed in the comments of the students and colleagues who introduced the award recipients, each one heralding the profound impact an outstanding teacher can have on the education and career path of a student.
