As a medical student at NYU, Dr. Burnett launched NYU School of Medicine’s African Medical Textbook Project, which aimed to provide African medical schools and libraries with new and used science textbooks. During the four years that he directed the program, several thousand much-needed textbooks were sent to medical institutions in Liberia, Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria and Zimbabwe. The program was constructed as a joint venture of the NYU School of Medicine, U.S. State Department, textbook publishers, and corporate philanthropists. In 1992, Dr. Burnett won the NYU President’s Award for Volunteerism and Community Service. Two years later he was awarded the Alex Rosen Award for Excellence in Medicine and Humanities.
