A new research recognition award has been instituted by the Research Development Committee of the Wayne State University School of Medicine Faculty Senate. The first Faculty Research Excellence Awards were presented to three people from basic science departments and three people from clinical departments. Winners each received a $2000 honorarium.
"The breadth and depth of exceptionally fine basic and clinical scientists who were nominated for these awards was remarkable," said James Marsh, MD, professor in internal medicine and the Center for Molecular Medicine and Genetics, and member of the Research Development Committee. "Each awardee brings pride to their research programs and the School of Medicine."
