It takes a team to train health leaders for the 21st century, and the UCF College of Medicine honored a broad range of accomplishments on October 25 in the inaugural M.D. Program Awards ceremony.

Honorees included regular and volunteer/affiliated faculty, M.D. students and for the first time staff, thanks to recommendations from the college’s Staff Recognition Task Force. Staff awards were given to both individuals and teams – including multidisciplinary groups – that support the M.D. program.
