Roderick Wong PennHealthX Gift Ceremony

January 21, 2020

Penn President Amy Gutmann and Dean Larry Jameson joined with visionary alumnus Roderick Wong, M’03, on the occasion of the formalization of the PennHealthX gift. The $6 million gift — one of the largest single gifts to support medical education at the Perelman School of Medicine — will endow the Roderick T. Wong PennHealthX Program. Created in 2013 by entrepreneurial Penn Medicine students, PennHealthX explores the intersections of medicine, business, and technology, and has become a valued, nationally recognized enhancer of the school’s curriculum. Wong, the winner of a PSOM Young Alumni Service Award, has been a champion and benefactor for PennHealthX since its inception.
