Description
The James Stuzin Aesthetic Education Excellence Fund, administered by The Aesthetic Foundation, helps reduce financial barriers to aesthetic education beyond the resources of formal training programs. It supports plastic surgery residents, fellows, and recent graduates attending eligible aesthetic meetings or symposia, or undertaking an observership with an eligible Aesthetic Society and Aesthetic Foundation Active Member.
Also known as the Stuzin Education Fund, the program honors Dr. James M. Stuzin’s contributions to aesthetic surgery and education. Following his recognition with the Foundation’s Career Achievement Award in 2023, the aesthetic community raised more than $100,000 to establish the fund.
