2022
Alumni Awards It was a celebration three years in the making: On May 20, 2022, the Geisel School of Medicine Alumni Awards Ceremony was held in person for the first time since 2019. Career Achievement Award recipient Joseph P. Lynch III MED’71 spoke of his time in medical school and the strong sense of community and inclusiveness at Geisel. “Dartmouth is a superb environment for learning medicine, and it also assures positive interactions with students, staff, patients, and others,” said Lynch. “I will always appreciate the relationships nurtured at Dartmouth and the lessons learned about medicine and life.” Lisa V. Adams MED’90, associate dean for global health and a professor in the Department of Medicine at Geisel, credits Geisel with helping her realize her dream to “work with all populations marginalized by inequitable systems regardless of where they live.” She said, “Support from my Dartmouth mentors and colleagues has fueled my strong desire to pay it forward. My Dartmouth students have been my other source of sustenance over the years . . . pushing me to want to be a worthy role model. So maybe this shouldn’t be an outstanding service award, but rather an ‘I’m trying to pay it forward’ award.”
