Miriam Morey, PhD, professor of medicine (Geriatrics), received the Paul B. Magnuson Award during VA Research Week 2021.
Dr. Morey was recognized for her work on the Gerofit Program for older veterans, which started at the Durham VA and is now a national program.
"It is wonderful to receive this award, but what is even more wonderful is knowing that your work will live beyond you because Gerofit is so much bigger than me now," said Dr. Morey.
