BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Charles M. Severin, assistant dean for students and associate professor of pathology and anatomical sciences in the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at the University at Buffalo, was one of 56 medical school faculty physicians nominated by medical students nationwide for the 2001 Humanism in Medicine Award sponsored by the Association of American Medical Colleges.

The physicians were nominated by the AAMC's Organization of Student Representatives based on five defining characteristics of humanism in medical education: positive mentoring skills, collaboration, compassion/sensitivity, community service activity and observance of professional ethics.

Severin lives in East Amherst.
