Amber Comer, J.D., Ph.D., associate professor of health sciences, continuously distinguishes herself within academia and medicine through her diligent commitment to serving diverse patient populations and driving equitable health-care practices. Earlier this week, Comer was recognized by Junior Achievement of Central Indiana as one of Indy’s Best and Brightest.
A multifaceted leader across multiple disciplines with expertise in medical decision-making for critical illness and vulnerable hospital patients, Comer received back-to-back nominations from the organization in the health and life sciences category. This year, she took home the top award.
The recognition award spans across ten categories, celebrating the most distinguished leading young professionals within each field. Each finalist is judged by leadership abilities and professional accomplishments. It’s no surprise Comer received this award, given her list of awards and accomplishments, including her recent appointment as director of the American Medical Association’s ethics policy.
Join us in celebrating Amber Comer on this exceptional distinction.
