Congratulations are in order for UTMB MS4 Audra Clos, who was awarded Summa Cum Laude Dermatology Research Graduation Honors for her UTMB Honors Research Program Thesis, "Characterization and therapeutic removal of amyloid deposits in cutaneous amyloidosis." This is only the fourth time that this honor has been awarded by the dermatology department, and the first such award since 2005. Nineteen UTMB medical students have completed the Dermatology Research Program since 2001, when this program was initiated.
