Recent Buswell Fellows

Since 1957, the Buswell fellowship has provided a dependable source of research funding, supporting diverse physician-scientists.

This support has been directly responsible for many significant medical research accomplishments at UB and has led to the development of research teams and capabilities that otherwise would have been difficult to achieve.
