Matthew, Josefa, and Aura from our group received offer to join the prestigious NIH funded U-Rise program for two years at KSU. In this program, they will be prepared for graduate program especially for PhD. Matthew, Josefa and Aura joined our lab from Spring 2022 and conducted independent research project. This research experience helped them to get offer joining this program from summer. Besides the yearly stipend (13K/year), they will receive 60% tuition waiver, summer research fund, travel fund, and many more.
