Le Bonheur and UTHSC announced the 2024 Faculty Award winners at July’s faculty meeting, highlighting our outstanding faculty members and their dedication and commitment to making a difference in their areas of healthcare. The awards program was initiated in 2013 to honor excellence in faculty endeavors in 4 areas critical to our mission…education, clinical care, mentoring, and research.

 Nominees are selected by the faculty, and reviewed and selected by the Education Committee, made up of a team of 8 faculty members and pediatric chief residents. The committee received a total of 18 nominations this year and narrowed the selection down to one winner in each category. Awardees can only win each award every 3 years. Listed below are the 4 outstanding recipients.

Each awarded winner was celebrated with a recognition plaque and a monetary award of $5,000.
