The Leslin Healthcare Leadership Foundation Supports the New York Academy of Medicine Library
“Discovering the Past to Inform the Future”
The Leslin Healthcare Leadership Foundation is dedicated to supporting the next generation of healthcare leaders and emphasizes the importance of history in leadership development. Recently, as part of the NYU High School Academy course titled “Exploring
Careers in Medicine” Professor Lin Lombardi took NYU High School Academy students on a visit to the New York Academy of Medicine (NYAM) and its historic library. The NYAM Library’s work is to “Discover the Past and Inform the Future.”
During the visit, participants discovered NYAM’s impressive collection of rare texts, artifacts, and treasures within the library. As a gesture of appreciation for NYAM and the NYAM Library, the Leslin Healthcare Leadership Foundation donated $1,000 to support the preservation of history and education.
