During the ceremony, 21 students, five residents and fellows, and four faculty members were inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society, which champions humanism in health care through compassion, collaboration and scientific excellence. The society “empowers experts, learners and leaders to together create systems and cultures that support humanistic care for all.”

Drexel’s chapter of Alpha Omega Alpha, the Delta Zeta chapter, welcomed 61 students, seven faculty members, nine residents and two alumni. The society holds the belief that the medical profession can improve care for everyone by “recognizing high educational achievement, honoring gifted teaching, encouraging the development of leaders in academia and the community, supporting the ideals of humanism and promoting service to others.”

The ceremony included a keynote address by Sara L. Wallach, MD, who serves as vice chair of education in the Department of Medicine and core faculty for the Internal Medicine Residency program at Capital Health.
