Bishoy Morris Faltas, Chief Research Officer at the Englander Institute for Precision Medicine and an Associate Professor of Medicine and Cell and Developmental Biology at Weill Cornell Medicine, shared a post by Joseph Safdieh, Senior Associate Dean for Education, Vice Chair for Education and Professor of Neurology at Weill Cornell Medicine on LinkedIn, adding:
“Grateful to Nobel laureate Harold Varmus for spending so much time with our first-year MD students in the Neoplasia unit i direct at Weill Cornell Medicine. Experiences like this capture the academic environment our students experience.
It is a privilege to work with Joseph Safdieh, Erika Abramson, Tony Brown, and the entire outstanding medical education team.”
Quoting Joseph Safdieh‘s post:
“A remarkable moment today as Nobel Laureate Dr. Harold Varmus, Lewis Thomas University Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine, is holding a Q/A with our first-year MD students as part of their neoplasia unit in the curriculum, after already spending two hours lecturing in the course.
To witness him engage so directly and generously with our students is inspiring. What an honor for them and what a reflection of the academic environment they’re entering. Thank you Bishoy Morris Faltas and Tony Brown for your leadership and for inviting me to crash the class!”
