Dear UCSF Community,

We are pleased to announce the recipients of the 2024 Chancellor Awards for Diversity.

This year’s awardees have all committed their time and effort far beyond their job scope or academic role to build bridges, dismantle barriers, and create spaces of innovation and connection. Each has demonstrated extraordinary leadership in their respective fields, our campuses and medical centers, and our greater community to make UCSF more diverse, equitable, and inclusive for all.

We were delighted to celebrate their contributions to UCSF at a ceremony held earlier today, and we invite you to learn more about them and their outstanding efforts by viewing these brief, inspiring videos.
