In our continuing effort to enhance the doctor-patient relationship, the Bucksbaum-Siegler Institute continues to fund various projects and initiatives supporting our overarching goals. Through our Pilot Grant Program, we foster innovation by providing resources and funding to Bucksbaum-Siegler Scholar projects, pushing the boundaries of clinical knowledge and investigating disparities in healthcare. Our Scholars are nominated and selected through a rigorous process evaluating their highest commitment to excellence in clinical care. Finally, The Clinical Excellence Award recognizes and celebrates individuals who epitomize outstanding contributions to the clinical field, serving as beacons of inspiration for the medical community.
