Hulsebosch Earns John Freeman Faculty Teaching Award

May 27, 2021

Claire E. Hulsebosch, PhD, professor in the Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy, is the 2021 recipient of the John H. Freeman Award for Faculty Teaching.

Chosen by the senior class, the John H. Freeman Award recognizes the McGovern Medical School’s outstanding basic science faculty member. The winner of this award, which was established by university funds and named in Freeman’s honor, must exemplify enthusiasm and drive toward effective teaching, have a personal interest in students’ problems and their educational goals, and set an example that serves as a high standard for students.

“This award is particularly meaningful, because it is voted on by the graduating class,” Hulsebosch said. “Needless to say, I was thrilled and extremely honored to have been chosen. For the students to remember a faculty who has impacted their medical education during the first two years of medical school is such an extremely high honor and very humbling. It is a privilege to interact with such bright, energetic and dedicated students.”
