C.W. Gowen, Jr., M.D. |
In a ceremony at Norfolk's Town Point
Club, C.W. Gowen, Jr., M.D., associate professor of pediatrics
and director of the pediatric residency program, received the medical
school's highest honor, the Dean's Outstanding Faculty Award. Gowen, a
neonatologist, came to EVMS in 1990 and transformed the fledgling
pediatric residency program into one of the nation's best. In 2007
alone, the residency program received 480 applicants for just 18
positions.
Pepe described Gowen as "as an
outstanding role model, embodying the highest professional and personal
ethics."
Honorees are nominated by other EVMS
faculty members. The recipients are selected by a committee appointed by
the dean.
