“Celebrating VPNOF 2025 Graduation.
What a wonderful day it was at the VPNOF 2025 Graduation Ceremony at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
Heartfelt congratulations to all the graduating fellows for their magnificent achievements – your dedication and hard work have truly paid off, and it was so heartwarming and inspiring to celebrate your success!
Our sincere appreciation to all of the mentors who are the ones behind this success, with a special vote of thanks to Santhosh Upadhyaya and Diana S. Osorio, who travelled all the way long to join us for this event.
This day also brought back beautiful memories of our own graduation last year – a reminder of how far we’ve all come since then. It was such a joy reconnecting with old and new friends, sharing memories, and celebrating the success of our fellow friends.
A special note of gratitude to the Chair, Global Pediatric Medicine, Carlos Rodriguez-Galindo, and the VPNOF Program Director Ibrahim Qaddoumi for the kind invitation and for hosting such a delightful evening with a lavish dinner. Your continued support and mentorship mean so much to all of us.
A heartfelt thank-you to the Program Coordinator, Elizabeth DiNovis, for all the effort and dedication you’ve put into making this event run smoothly, and to Susan Ybarra for always being there for us!
With gratitude and pride, we celebrate the VPNOF community – for everything we’ve built and all we’ll create next, insha’Allah!”
