Susan Y. Green, M.P.H., lead project manager in the Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, was named a 2019 Michael E. DeBakey Fellow in the History of Medicine by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM).

She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in biology from the University of Houston and an MPH from The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston’s School of Public Health.
