Each year, the Faculty of Medicine recognizes faculty and staff members for excellence in teaching, research, administration, innovation and public service. Amongst other award winners, Dr. John Cairns in the UBC Department of Medicine has been awarded the UBC Award for Excellence in Mentoring Early Career Faculty. This award recognizes faculty members who have formally been identified as mentors and who exemplify a deep commitment to fostering the professional and personal development of faculty members in the early stages of their academic careers.
