MAA AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE
Thanks to the generosity of medical alumni who have made donations and bequests to the Medical Alumni Association, we are able to provide a number of awards every year to students, faculty and staff. The recipients of the faculty and staff awards are selected by the graduating class. The MAA Awards were announced during the Temerty Faculty of Medicine Pre-Convocation Ceremony on June 15, 2021.
