The MRM Network is pleased to announce the results of the Winter 2024 Lucie Besner Travel Awards competition.

The Lucie Besner Travel Awards support national and international presence of the MRM Trainees. Over the Winter 2024 Competition, the MRM Network is awarding four prizes of $500 to cover travel and/or registration fees. Each submitted application was evaluated by the MRM Prizes and Awards Committee.

It is with great pleasure that we announce the 4 Awardees:

• Christina Boghdady, Ph.D. Candidate in Christopher Moraes’ Lab (Chemical Engineering)
• Laura Bouret, Ph.D. Candidate in Derek Rosenzweig’s Lab (Experimental Surgery)
• Marc-Antoine Campeau, Postdoctoral Researcher in Corinne Hoesli’s Lab (Chemical Engineering)
• Connie Guo, Master Candidate in Jesper Sjöström’s Lab (IPN)

Congratulations to all of you!

This competition would not be possible without the generosity of Mme. Lucie Besner, patron sponsor of the Travel Awards, and the MRM Prizes and Awards Committee members, who took the time to evaluate all of the applications received.

If you are planning to present your work at a scientific meeting between August 2024 and January 2025, stay tuned for the upcoming Lucie Besner Travel Awards Competition  (opening in early June).
