exemplary professionalism and commitment to 

academic achievement. This award has been 

made possible by a generous donation from a 

patient of Dr. Jeff Ginsberg. The 2008 winner is 

Dr. Sherali Rahim, PGY6 Cardiology. 

Dr. Shariq Haider promoted the annual Core 

IM Resident Research Award to support trainees 

in pursuing original research while getting early 

exposure and practical experience around all 

aspects of research. There were no winners this 

year, but Dr. Haider urged residents to continue 

with the hard work medicine residents have 

demonstrated. 

The resident-selected Internist and 

Subspecialty Awards for Excellence in Clinical 

Teaching went to Dr. Jim Gibson for the General 

Internist Award and Dr. Nader Khalidi for the 

Subspecialist Award. Along with receiving an 

individual plaque, their names will be engraved 

on the wall plaque displayed in the Department 

of Medicine Residency Training Program Office. 

The Faculty Appreciation Award was presented 

by Dr. Parveen Wasi to Dr. Marianne Talman
