2026 Lewinter-Suskind Global Health Awards

In 2013, Penn alum Robert Suskind, MD (C’59, M’63) and his wife, Leslie Lewinter-Suskind, MSS, MFA, generously endowed an annual award recognizing the graduating medical student who demonstrates a commitment to addressing critical global health challenges in their medical career.

To complement this prize, in 2021, Bob and Leslie endowed another prize for a PSOM faculty member who exemplifies their lifelong commitment to improving global health and access to care through training partnerships, research, or clinical work.

This year, the Suskinds have graciously endowed yet another prize recognizing residents who demonstrate an exceptional commitment to advancing global health equity and whose work reflects meaningful engagement in improving public health awareness, access to care, discovery and outcomes-based research, and/or medical education through collaborative and partnership-driven efforts.
