Joseph B. Martin Dean's Award
The Dean’s Award for Leadership in the Advancement of Women was initiated by Dean Joseph B. Martin in 1998 to recognize Harvard faculty and staff members committed to the recruitment, retention, and advancement of women at Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Dental Medicine.
The award is co-sponsored by the JCSW and the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine as an annual event and is organized by the Joint Committee on the Status of Women at HMS and HSDM.
Candidates may be of either gender and are nominated by the voting faculty or HMS/HSDM staff, respectively. The recipients of the Dean’s Award receive a cash award.
