Danielle Peress, MD Memorial Fund
The Danielle Peress, MD Memorial Fund was established in 2018 in memory of Dani Peress, who passed away during her second year of MFM fellowship. The fund was established to honor Dani’s wishes to further advance the field of MFM by supporting MFM fellows in their clinical or translational research endeavors.
Applications are due by November 15, and $2,500 is awarded to one or more recipients in January of the following year.
