Fall/Winter 2024

Our fall/winter issue celebrates the excellence, creativity and compassion that define the UAB community: faculty writers who hand-built their wooded cabin, designers and planners who help shape the campus environment, neuroscience faculty who are transforming their field, and the dedicated team in UAB Spiritual Health who provide care for patients, family and staff. Read about these remarkable people who, in their own unique ways, make UAB the special place that it is.
