In early 2021, the Association of University Professors of Ophthalmology (AUPO) named Jamie B. Rosenberg, MD, their Medical Student Educator of the Year, an award co-funded by the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO).

AUPO is a consortium of ophthalmology chairs, resident and medical student educators who represent approximately 120 academic ophthalmology departments across the United States. Each year, AUPO elects the top resident and medical student educator in the country for this highly prestigious and respected award. 

In recognition of her incredible contributions to ophthalmology education at Montefiore Einstein and beyond, Dr. Rosenberg was honored with the award at the 2021 AUPO meeting. Dr. Rosenberg was also awarded the 2021 Harry H. Gordon Award for Outstanding Clinical Teaching from Albert Einstein College of Medicine. She was also elected to the AUPO (Association of University Professors of Ophthalmology) Program Directors Council.
