“While we are here to celebrate specific award recipients today, I want to take a moment to acknowledge the vital contributions of all our faculty,” said Yaron Tomer, M.D., the Marilyn and Stanley M. Katz Dean at Einstein and chief academic officer at Montefiore Einstein. “Every one of you plays a critical role in shaping the future of medicine and inspiring the next generation of clinicians and researchers. Your dedication not only impacts your colleagues but also profoundly affects our students, who look to you as role models and mentors.”
