Jonathan D. Daniels, MD '98 (posthumously)

Jonathan Daniels, MD '98.

 2023 Medical Alumni Association President's Award

Dr. Jonathan D. Daniels was an associate director of admissions at the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. He was a tireless advocate for diversity – recruiting and mentoring hundreds of scholars from traditionally underserved backgrounds.

Dr. Daniels was a lead advocate for various programs throughout the Jacobs School, including the Associated Medical Schools of New York post-baccalaureate program and the Early Opportunity Program in Medicine.

After his tragic passing, the Jonathan Daniels, MD ’98 and Family Memorial Scholarship was established to support the need to help make medical education more affordable and more diverse and helping us to recruit scholars from underrepresented communities and serve our local pediatric community. Jonathan was past president of the medical alumni association and would have been celebrating his 25th Reunion. More information about Dr. Daniels available.
