Congratulations to Ruth Webster, a Postdoctoral Fellow under Laurel Schafer, who has received a Faculty of Science Postdoctoral Travel Award.
As part of UBC's ongoing efforts to support young research talent, the Faculty of Graduate Studies and UBC Science launched this award for Postdoctoral Fellows in 2011. It is designed to assist PDFs with travel to conferences in order to present research performed at UBC. Approximately four awards are allocated three times per year by the Faculty of Science. Applicants are adjudicated by a committee of PDFs and Associate Dean of Science Dr. Curtis Suttle.
