Congratulations to Anna Carey on receiving the 2023 Frederick E. Shideman Leadership Award!
The Shideman Leadership Award recognizes exemplary contributions to the Pharmacology community, made outside of the research lab, by a senior PhD student. This award is determined by the votes of the students in the MPaT Program and while several of our fantastic graduate students were nominated, Anna won the majority of votes for her outstanding leadership. In addition to serving two terms on the Pharmacology Graduate Student Organization (PGSO) board as Vice President and President, Anna is a founding member of the Council of Graduate Students (CGS) which advocates for the needs of Graduate Students in the Medical School. Please join us in congratulating Anna in her achievement and acting as a great role model for our Pharmacology MPaT students!
