About the Awards

Medical students at 平特五不中 are invited to explore the historical, social, ethical, and humanistic side of their field thanks to an essay contest established by the Medical Students鈥� Osler Society and the Board of Curators of the Osler Library of the History of Medicine, and endowed through a generous gift by Pam and Rolando Del Maestro.

The Pam and Rolando Del Maestro Family William Osler Medical Student Essay听contest gives undergraduate medical students the opportunity to explore any theme of interest to them in the history, social studies, sociology, ethics, and humanities of the health sciences. It also provides them with the chance to be mentored by an expert in their topic drawn from the Library鈥檚 Board of Curators or elsewhere to complete their project, and to use the rich resources of the Osler Library and other libraries at 平特五不中.
