New Gift to Duke Continues Support for Early-Career Physician-Scientists
Yvonne Mowery, M.D., Ph.D., Butler Harris Assistant Professor in Radiation Oncology, is one of many physician-scientists at Duke who credits the Duke University School of Medicine’s Strong Start Program for her career growth.
A new $7.15 million gift from the Nanaline H. Duke Fund will help Duke continue to support early-career physicians who also conduct research, announced Duke University President Vincent E. Price.
“An investment in early-career physician-scientists is an investment in our future,” Price says. “We are grateful to the Nanaline H. Duke Fund for their support of this innovative program, which is advancing laboratory science and clinical research and providing new opportunities for Duke School of Medicine faculty.”
