Congratulations to Janice Taylor, M.D., M.Ed., on receiving the Philip J. Wolfson Outstanding Teacher Award from the Association for Surgical Education!
Taylor, a professor of surgery, received the award at last week’s annual meeting of the association in Atlanta, GA. The award recognizes faculty who play an active role in surgical education and are regarded as exceptional educators by colleagues and learners. Candidates must demonstrate strong teaching practices, innovation, mentorship and documented evidence of educational impact.
“Serving as an educator to students, residents and fellows is immense fun and also a great responsibility,” said Taylor, who is the program director of the department’s pediatric surgery fellowship and associate program director of the general surgery residency. “This recognition is quite humbling.”
