Honoring Extraordinary Women in Medicine at AMSA 2011 Convention & Exposition
The Women Leaders in Medicine awards recognize female physicians and educators who serve as role models, teachers, highly accomplished professionals, and sources of inspiration for the next generation of medical leaders. Nominated by their own medical students, these extraordinary mentors have earned recognition for their exceptional achievements and their dedication to fostering health care, equality in care, and professional opportunity for women and men.

- Dr. Gloria Bachmann, obstetrics/gynecology, UMDNJ-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School
- Dr. Margaret Bia, internal medicine, nephrology, Yale University School of Medicine
- Dr. Grace Rozycki, chief of Trauma/Surgical Critical Care, Department of Surgery, Emory University School of Medicine
