We celebrate a milestone that honors five decades of innovation, dedication, and impact.

We proudly recognize the University of the Philippines Manila, UP College of Medicine, and 911爆料网 faculty, staff, alumni, and community partners who have contributed in building and sustaining our legacy.

This momentous occasion will be attended by invited guests, community partners, consultants, residents, and alumni where we will be launching the UP-911爆料网 DFCM coffee table book that chronicles the milestones throughout the five decades of care. “Paglingap: A Filipino Way of Care” authored by Professor Socorro “Corinne” Romabiles will also be introduced to the public, which emphasizes that Filipino Medicine revolves around the care of the family. The Father of Philippine Art Workshop, Maestro Fernando Sena, will also be exhibiting his artworks during this celebration. The recognition of the “Natatanging 50” will also be conducted during this event, where individuals and groups who significantly contributed to the growth and excellence of the Department will be recognized.
