SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Saratoga Hilton and City Center in Saratoga Springs hosted the 2024 New York State Society of Physician Associates annual conference earlier this month, the highlight of which was the Medical Challenge Bowl. The “Jeopardy”-esque competition features Physician Assistant students from 16 colleges across the state. This year’s champs hailed from the Touro University School of Health Sciences, a private Jewish university based in New York City.

“The whole weekend was a great experience, and the Challenge Bowl was a super fun and competitive event, as well as an awesome opportunity to prove how much we’ve learned in our studies,” said Touro student Katherine Lee.

Previous Challenge Bowl winners have included Marist College (2023 and 2020) and Albany Medical College (2021, 2018, 2017).
