OMRF’s Sir Alexander Fleming scholar program celebrated it’s 50th class
On Jun. 8, 2005, the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation’s Sir Alexander Fleming scholar program celebrated it’s 50th class and continued to train the state’s brightest young science students to be the researchers of tomorrow.
In 1957, seven students participated in the Summer Scholar Program which was originated by Dr. Charles Kochakian. This program was the forerunner of the Fleming Scholar Program. Two of OMRF’s faculty members, Judith James, M.D., Ph.D., and Rodger McEver, M.D., got their start as Fleming Scholars.
