AHEC Presentation

15 faculty members from Duke General Internal Medicine have been recently promoted to Assistant Professor!

Three physicians from Duke were entered a local Triathlon that, last minute, changed to Duathlon because of storms: Sharon Rubin (GIM), Jeff Clough (GIM), and Don Hegland (Cardiology). These doctors took the race by storm though, finishing 2nd and 3rd in their age groups.

The Duke Center for Palliative Care is pleased to announce a new annual award to recognize palliative care excellence outside of specialist palliative care services.  The Palliative Care Advocacy Award will honor members of the Duke Health community who are NOT part of Duke’s palliative care program who demonstrate an exceptional commitment to integrating the key elements of palliative care into their daily work.
