Two medical students receive UBC Wesbrook Scholarships

UBC medical students Lawrence Haiducu and Shazeen Suleman have been named Wesbrook Scholars. The scholarships are awarded to senior students with outstanding academics, leadership, and involvement in student and community activities.

Haiducu has led education and community engagement projects for socio-economically disadvantaged areas in Romania and Latin America, including the development of teaching resources, novel teaching approaches, and entrepreneurship opportunities.

Suleman was the VP Outreach for the UBC Arts in Medicine Society and co-chair of Medicina, the first student-run conference on the integration of the arts in medicine.
