Drs. Melissa Carbajal and Muralidhar Premkumar, Neonatology faculty and fellowship program leadership, congratulate third-year fellow Dr. AnnaMarie Arias-Shah as the 25th annual Arnold J. Rudolph Memorial Grand Rounds award recipient. The award recognizes third-year fellows in neonatal-perinatal medicine for outstanding teaching, patient care, scientific inquiry and professional integrity. Dr. William E. Benitz, Philip Sunshine Professor of Neonatology in the Division of Neonatal and Developmental Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine, was this year’s invited speaker at the recent grand rounds.
The Arnold J. Rudolph Memorial Grand Rounds was established in 1996 by the Section of Neonatology, in the Department of Pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine, in memory of its late Section Chief, Dr. Arnold J. Rudolph, who died in 1995. Dr. Rudolph was a well-respected clinician and educator, recognized internationally as a leader of neonatology.
