Six Feinberg faculty members have been honored with induction into the American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI) and the Association of American Physicians (AAP). This distinction celebrates their significant contributions to the medical field. Notable inductees include Tamara Isakova, recognized for her research in nephrology, and Sadiya Khan, known for her work in cardiovascular epidemiology. Additionally, Sarki Abdulkadir and Ankit Bharat have been honored for their leadership in urology and thoracic surgery, respectively. Their work exemplifies excellence in clinical research and dedication to advancing medical knowledge.
When I was first starting out as a new research fellow in the field of mineral metabolism, I read many seminal papers that were published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, which is the leading journal of the American Society of Investigation.
These papers remain in my mind the paragons of excellence in detailed physiologic investigation of humans, and they inspire me to keep working hard to generate the fundamental knowledge that is needed to advance the practice of medicine.
This year's ASCI inductees include Tamara Isakova, MD, MMSc, the Fowler McCormick professor of Nephrology and director of the Center for Translational Metabolism and Health within the Institute for Public Health and Medicine.
This year's AAP inductees are Sarki Abdulkadir, MD, PhD, the John T. Grayhack, MD, Professor of Urological Research and vice chair for Research in the Department of Urology.
