Welcome to the University of Colorado School of Medicine on the Anschutz Medical Campus. A Top Ten Medical School, our departments, centers and institutes work with the University of Colorado Hospital, Children's Hospital Colorado Barbara Davis Center.

The Jacqueline Marie Leaffer Endowment at the Center for Women's Health Research funds competitive travel awards to help promising junior faculty scientists and physician-scientists at the University of Colorado present their women's health-related research at a national meeting.

Jacqueline Marie Leaffer's parents, Karen and Steven Leaffer, endowed these awards to augment Jacqueline's Gift to the Center. Both are part of Jacqueline's legacy to improve the future of women's health.

Competition details will be publicized internally each spring. The award recipients and research topics will be announced at the Center's Annual Fall Luncheon.
