FAU's Medical Students Receive Their First Doctor’s White Coats During the White Coat Ceremony

The students in the entering class of 2013 of FAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine received their first doctor’s white coats at a time-honored ceremony last August. A symbolic event introduced in 1993, the White Coat Ceremony was established after a group of distinguished physicians, medical educators and community leaders formed the Arnold P. Gold Foundation. The Foundation concluded that the beginning of a student’s journey into medicine is the best time to influence standards of professionalism, humanistic values and behavior. More than 100 medical schools in the United States now hold White Coat Ceremonies.

FAU announces a national search to recruit a chairperson for the Department of Biomedical Science in the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine. The Department of Biomedical Science has active partnerships involving the Scripps Research Institute, Scripps Florida, the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience, and the Vaccine Gene Therapy Institute of Florida. The new chair will have the opportunity to build a newly emerging research-intensive department and make a major impact on its future direction and success.
