Two Jefferson students will be celebrated at the 18th Jefferson Gala with the Algernon Brashear Jackson Student Award.
Michelle Ho, a member of the class of 2021 at Sidney Kimmel Medical College, and Allyson Naiken, part of the class of 2021 at the Jefferson College of Nursing, are student standouts for their resourcefulness, drive, and care for others.
Ho was a Health Design Research Fellow who has pioneered and published a number of clinical 3D printing works. Her efforts were critical to Jefferson’s COVID swab project, which decreased reliance on third-party swabs. She served as representative for the Association of American Medical Colleges’ Organization of Student Representatives and was part of the prestigious Student Leadership Forum.
