Medical Student Wins Award Usually Offered Only to Physicians
Carisa Champion-Lippmann, a third-year NSU medical student, received a significant honor when she was named a Guardian of the Profession by the American Osteopathic Association—an accolade normally reserved for physicians, not students. The honor recognizes an osteopathic physician who advances the culture of osteopathic medicine by having served in a local, state, or national osteopathic leadership role. A guardian also demonstrates a strong sense of pride in the osteopathic medical profession and works actively to advance osteopathic medicine with colleagues and the general public.
