We are happy to announce that the first annual Eugene B. Feigelson Merit-Based Scholarship Award was presented to Gylynthia Trotman on May 22, 2008 at the College of Medicine Awards Day.

Gylynthia has demonstrated extraordinary accomplishments in addition to her medical studies. Her research poster entitled, "Incorporating on-line lectures in an obstetrics and gynecology clerkship: a two year experience," was presented at the ACOG national meeting in Utah. In addition, throughout medical school, she was an active member of the Daniel Hale Williams Society; a co-director of Operation Success; and worked in the Family Planning Clinic. She served as community service liaison and co-president (2005-2006) to the OB/GYN club, and was a student member of the College of Medicine Admissions Committee (2005-2006).

Gylynthia graduated from SUNY Downstate in May, 2008, as a member of the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA), the national medical school honor society.
