Emory Laney Graduate School

The 2025 Kharen Fulton Award at the Laney Graduate School honors a scholar whose work advances justice, belonging, and opportunity. This year’s recipient, third year PhD Nursing student, researcher, and advocate, John Anthony Fuller, embodies the heart of that mission.

“Receiving the Kharen Fulton Inclusive Excellence Award was both humbling and deeply emotional for me. Professionally, winning this award affirmed the work I do in health equity, mentorship, and community-engaged scholarship. Personally, it grounded me in gratitude. It reminded me that none of us move through graduate school alone and that I am standing on the shoulders of people—like Dr. Fulton—who made space for scholars like me to exist, thrive, and lead,” said Fuller.
