Chief Financial Officer Vincent Nacco and Dental Assistant Cynthia Washington have been chosen for the 2022 Third Annual Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS) Chancellor Awards. Established by the RBHS Chancellor’s Office, these awards acknowledge the extraordinary work of faculty and staff.

“There were many highly qualified nominees for these recognitions, so the selection committees had a challenging task,” said a joint email to the community by RBHS Senior Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs and Research Bishr Omary and RBHS Chancellor and Executive Vice President for Health Affairs, Rutgers University, Brian L. Strom. “It’s important to highlight that a nomination in and of itself is an important form of recognition by a co-worker, colleague, mentee, or unit director.”

Nacco and Washington were among the 28 honorees.

Nacco received the Leadership Award “For visionary leadership that inspires and fosters teams by example that has benefited the RSDM community and beyond,” said the email. Washington was selected as one of the Sustained Service Award recipients “For decades of excellence as an RBHS clinical employee and an unwavering commitment to orthodontic patients, staff, faculty, and residents.”

There will be a celebratory event later in the year to recognize award recipients.
