DESCRIPTION OF THE COVER ARTWORK

“Tres Circulos”

Regina C. Yao, MD

Medicine and Cardiology Fellowship Training Program,
University of Santo Tomas Hospital

The iconic University of Santo Tomas Main Building which incidentally was also inaugurated on 1927, the same year that the Department of Medicine was established, serves as the solid background of the three circles representing the theme of our 95th anniversary.


The first circle represents the illustrious past of UST represented by Saints Cosmas and Damian. The second circle features the medical frontliner- the modern day hero with the vaccine in hand representing a vibrant present that exudes hope for the end of the pandemic. The third circle illustrates artificial intelligence with a heart paving the way for a revolutionary future.


At the forefront is the Thomasian Tiger- a symbol of strength, courage and standing for truth, justice and integrity.
