The Chair of Medicine Scholars Awards, initiated in 2013, are awarded annually to meritorious University of Washington Department of Medicine trainees to foster their transition to the roles of physician-scientist and principal investigator. Each award offers $50K per year for two years in salary support to facilitate transition to appointment as a junior faculty member.
Congratulations to the 2024 award recipients, Drs. Eleanor (Elly) Bhatraju, assistant professor (General Internal Medicine) and Simon Hsu, assistant professor (Nephrology).
