We are super excited to share that our CenHealth director, Dr. Lourdes Baezconde Garbanati received a USC Mentoring Award in the Faculty Mentoring Graduate Students category.  The USC Mentoring Awards honor individual faculty members for helping to build a supportive academic environment through faculty-to-student mentoring and faculty-to-faculty mentoring. Faculty who receive this award have made a significant and lasting impact to those students they mentor, providing support and guidance in their professional development.

CenHealth staff would like to congratulate Dr. Baezconde-Garbanati for this well deserved recognition as one of the university’s top faculty in mentoring.  She is a true mentor to all of us and many others.  We can’t thank her enough for all that she does.
