Malka Zaltzberg's award for medical work

This is an award that my mother Malka Zaltzberg received in 1939 for her excellent work in Odessa Scientific Research Institute of Tuberculosis. In 1919 my mother finished a six-month course of medical nurses and entered the Medical Faculty of Novorossiysk University. She graduated in 1922. She became a doctor at the central tuberculosis outpatient clinic called White Flower. Later this clinic joined the Odessa Scientific Research Institute of Tuberculosis. My mother was always a good doctor. In 1943 she defended her dissertation for the title of candidate of medical services and in 1947 she was awarded the title of senior scientific employee.
