Fifty-one students were recognized at the third annual UAB Fellowships luncheon on April 8 for being named finalists or winners of national and international fellowships.
“These students represent UAB extremely well. We’re proud of the many accomplishments they have made in their respective fields,” said UAB President Ray L.
