Awards

• “Highly Commended” recognition by The Society of Authors and the Royal Society of Medicine in London
  The textbook that I’ve co-authored with others in the UK (i.e., Mims Medical Microbiology) was awarded “Highly Commended” recognition by The Society of Authors and the Royal Society of Medicine in London at a ceremony we all attended on October 18th, 2005 at the Royal Society of Medicine in London.
