IAMSE, on behalf of the Educational Scholarship Committee, would like to congratulate Alice Fornari and Kim Dahlman on receiving the Distinguished Career Award and Early Career Award, respectively.
The Distinguished Career Award for Excellence in Teaching and Educational Scholarship recognizes an IAMSE member who has a distinguished record of educational scholarship, including educational research and dissemination of scholarly approaches to teaching and education. Candidates must have a significant record of engagement within IAMSE. Alice Fornari is the Associate Dean of Educational Skills Development Zucker Som at Hofstra/Northwell and is the Vice President of Faculty Development for the 23 hospitals of the Northwell Health organization.
The Early Career Award for Excellence in Teaching and Innovation honors an IAMSE member who has made significant innovations to the field in the short time they have focused their careers toward enhancing teaching, learning and assessment. Candidates must have demonstrated less than 10 years of educational scholarship. Kimberly Dahlman, 2021 awardee, is an Associate Professor of Medicine (Division of Hematology/Oncology) and Director of the Innovative Translational Research Shared Resource (ITR) in the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
Congratulations to Dr. Fornari and Dr. Dahlman. They will both be honored at the 25th Annual IAMSE Meeting in early June. Good luck to both of you in all your future endeavors.
Thank you,
Bonny Dickinson
