October 12, 2020 – Congratulations to the 2020 Bowman Scholars: (L-R) Daniel Kofi Akyeampong, Gabrielle Katherine Smith, Margot Jamieson Mellette, Steven David Young and Sabrina Rachele Swoger from the Class of 2021. Young was selected as the 2020 Bowman Award recipient.

Each year since 1978, the Bowman Award has been presented to a fourth-year medical student at UVA who demonstrates the spirit and ideals with which Dick Bowman, MD ’74, impressed his fellow students, physicians, family and friends during his relatively short lifetime. Dr. Bowman died tragically in May 1977 as the result of a sailing accident in upstate New York.

Congratulations again to this year’s honorees!
