Therese Zink Student Narrative Award

Established in 2015, this $500 award is presented to one graduating medical student whose narrative has been accepted for publication by a journal or has been published. Special consideration will go to narratives with a family medicine connection. Family Medicine faculty will review submitted narratives and determine the recipient.

In recognition of their achievements, award recipients will be invited to attend the Dean's Tribute to Excellence in Education on April 29, 2026.
