The University of Oklahoma College of Medicine recently honored the Chickasaw Nation Medical Center in Ada and one of its family physicians for excellence in helping train the physicians of tomorrow.

The honor, awarded since 1983, recognizes OU College of Medicine faculty members for excellence in teaching. It was established through an endowment made by the late Oklahoma City businessman Stanton L. Young.

Researchers across the OU Health Sciences Center were recently awarded nearly $3 million in grants from the Presbyterian Health Foundation (PHF), which supports Oklahoma’s biotechnology, medical research and education organizations.

The OU College of Medicine has presented the Patricia Price Browne Prize in Biomedical Ethics to Ezekiel J. Emanuel, M.D., Ph.D., Vice Provost for Global Initiatives and the Diane v.S. Levy and Robert M. Levy University Professor at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine.
