Mentor of the Year Award
The first WDS Mentor of the Year award was given to Frances J. Storrs, MD, who had previously returned her honorarium to the WDS for the Rose Hirschler Award in 1991, to establish a Mentorship Program. Since 1993, the Mentorship Program has funded more than 700 women and men early in their professional careers, to spend one-on-one time with an established mentor of specific expertise. Congratulations to these deserving recipients!
The nomination period will reopen in August.
