Dr. Jian Shen, who did his PhD research with Dr. Gudas, made a 7-figure gift to fund the new medical and graduate student residence on York Ave. and 74th St.

Two study rooms, adjacent to each other on the main floor, will be named the "Lorraine J Gudas, PhD Room" and the "Olaf Andersen, MD Room" in honor of two professors Dr. Shen holds in the highest regard. Here is a picture of Dr. Shen and Dr. Gudas in 2016 when he stopped by to visit Dr. Gudas.
