Rutgers Health leadership was impressed by Hailey Sulzbach's compassion, humility, and work ethic, as well as Angela Zhao's humanism and vision to address health disparities.

The two schools are being integrated to form the future Rutgers School of Medicine, expected to be officially established in 2027.
