2022 GIM Excellence Awards

General Internal Medicine announces the 7th annual Excellence Awards to honor the outstanding achievements of our division's faculty and staff members in clinical care, education, research, implementation, and professionalism. This year, we added a few more award categories and are excited to have 10 individual awards as well as one team award. 

Nominations should consist of a letter of nomination outlining the candidate’s contributions, written by another faculty or staff member who is familiar with these contributions. Nominations will be reviewed by the GIM Awards Selections Committee who will present their choices to the Division Chief for final approval. 

The award winners will be announced by the Division Chief in the fall of 2022.
