Just got a formalized, signed letter that I nabbed one of the big named 1-year medical student research fellowships at my school to do heart failure research...which means I'm gonna be given through the college of medicine a $25,000 stipend, which I just found out will be matched by my school hospital's Department of Surgery
Also received an email today stating that I had been nominated for and won a peer- and faculty-selected Professionalism Award of $2,000, to be awarded this fall...kinda curious which crazy people made the nomination. I owe them a round of booze.
Hurrah for reducing debt from school loans!
