Approaching his one-year-mark as the first CEO of the Clinical Center, Gilman was excited to honor awardees, 42 individual award recipients and 300 recipients in group awards.

"I love giving out group awards because I believe healthcare is all about teamwork," he said. "What we do together is so much more powerful than any of us can do ourselves."
