Thank you to the amazing faculty of the Weill Department of Medicine who showcased their outrageous new hairstyles on Friday, May 29, 2020! We saw an array of fun hairstyles from red mohawks, rainbow hair, and purple wigs, to red beards, and more! As of June 1, 2020, more than $80,000 was raised from 180 donors – more than 160% of our initial $50,000 goal.
The funds raised through this effort will be an immediate accelerant to support the academic efforts of our trainees and junior faculty, whose work has been impacted, and often delayed, by the need to join the COVID-19 response. This will help support their careers and amplify their work during this next recovery phase.
Please check out our recap video for hilarious highlights from the day!
