Wendland receives 2025 UW Hilldale Award

Each year, the four UW–Madison faculty divisions each recognize one faculty member for their contributions to teaching, research and service with the Hilldale Award. Claire Wendland, MD, PhD, professor in the Departments of Anthropology and Obstetrics and Gynecology, received the Hilldale Award for social sciences. Wendland and other Hilldale recipients were recognized at the April 7, 2025 Faculty Senate meeting. 

Wendland was celebrated for her unique perspective on the complex relationships involved in practicing medicine on people around the world, as well as many years of uplifting students and fellow faculty members by creating spaces for research collaborations and community building.
