Kirstein Fellowship Goes To Louis Nason of Boston

Dr. Louis H. Nason, of Boston Assistant in Surgery at the Medical School and on the staff at Both Israel Hospital, has been named the first recipient of the recently established Louis E. Kirstein Fellowship at the Harvard Medical School, the University announced yesterday.

The award is for the academic year 1938-39. Dr. Nason prepared for college at Boston Latin School, received an A.B. cum laude, from Harvard in 1927 and an M. D. cum laude from Harvard in 1931.

The Kirstein Felowship, to promote "scientific medical education," was established through a gift of $28,550 made last fall to the University by eighty-nine friends of Mr. Kirstein, Vice-President of William Fileno's Sons Company, in honor of his seventieth birthday and in recognition "of their affection for him as a man and their admiration of him as a humanitarian."
