NYMC faculty authors celebrate!

On Thursday, January 12, 2012, sixty attendees gathered at the 18th New York Medical College (NYMC) faculty author recognition event in the Health Sciences Library. This event toasts the scholarly publications of 418 authors in 1058 items during the 2010/2011 academic year. It is a true celebration and sharing among colleagues.

A complete photo archive of this invitational event are posted at: http://library.nymc.edu/bibliog/2012/.

The heart of the event is to recognize the contributions of faculty to our scientific body of knowledge. Every author is a “winner,” but special awards are given each year for particularly noteworthy achievements. Below are this year’s awardees; NYMC faculty author names are in bold. The completed bibliography of publications, as well as the back files to 1993, is available in PDF format and searchable via a RefShare database. Copies of this year’s journal articles are on display in the library along with the published books and book chapters. If you are nearby, please stop in to browse.

Congratulations to all authors and heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended this year’s celebration. Special thanks to Ralph A. O’Connell, M.D., Provost and Dean, along with the Office of Academic Administration, who co-sponsor this event. Special gratitude goes to Elsevier Science and McGraw Hill for sponsoring this annual library event.
