Graduate Fellowship Awards 2020
October 1, 2020
By Andrew Chisholm
The graduate program is excited to announce the following Divisional fellowship awards to our PhD students. These awards are given annually for outstanding performance and contributions to the graduate program, and are made possible by endowment gifts from generous donors, including:
· David Goeddel, a biotechnology pioneer and UC San Diego alumnus
· Ray Thomas Edwards, a prominent San Diego business leader and supporter of UC San Diego
· Marguerite Vogt, a distinguished cancer researcher
· Ruth Stern, a pediatrician and widow of former Chair of Biology Herbert Stern
New this year are the Kavli-Helinski Endowed Graduate Fellowships, for outstanding senior PhD students in research labs affiliated with the Kavli Institute for Brain and Mind. The award also honors Don Helinski, a pioneer in molecular biology and emeritus professor in the Division of Biological Sciences.
Congratulations to all our award winners! More awards will be announced later in the academic year.
