The Center for Faculty Educators presents UCSF's 25th Annual Education Showcase, an event that highlights and celebrates the scholarly work of UCSF faculty, fellows, residents, students, and staff. The showcase will offer opportunities for faculty development and will showcase the variety and quality of innovative educational work produced by our UCSF colleagues throughout the year. The Cooke Awards are presented during the plenary session.
