Presidential Scholar Award to be presented in honor of Sandra Osborn, MD
The Wisconsin Medical Society Foundation will present the Presidential Scholar Award to University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health (UWSMPH) student, Laurie Lapp, in honor of Sandra Osborn, MD, at Health & Harmony on Friday, April 5, 2024. Lapp is a student at UWSMPH applying for OBGYN residencies with a desire to practice medicine in Wisconsin. She has a goal to help medical students tap into their passion for advocacy, hone their advocacy skills and prepare them to be effective physician-advocates for their patients.
The Presidential Scholarship was established to recognize future medical leaders, who will be entering their final year next fall and who exemplify the attributes, skills and desire to become a medical leader in Wisconsin. In addition to general scholarship eligibility, applicants must show active involvement with the Wisconsin Medical Society or a County Medical Society, including activities and ties to Wisconsin. In his letter of support for Lapp, Wisconsin Medical Society President, Don Lee, MD, writes, “I am so very impressed by her extraordinary dedication and untiring efforts to engage medical students and physicians in the process of developing sound health policy both at the state and national level.”
Doctor Osborn was a true champion of both the art and science of medicine. In addition to helping establish the Presidential Scholar Award, she was extremely supportive of students, sponsoring white coats, volunteering at Operation Education and even going back to medical school to mentor the UWSMPH class of 2006. There is no doubt Dr. Osborn would be proud to recognize the outstanding student leadership exemplified by this year’s recipient, Laurie Lapp.
