This year’s honorees were selected from over 50 nominations reviewed by a panel comprising faculty, staff, and grad students. </p> <p><em><strong>Awardees:</strong></em></p> <p><strong>‌</strong><em>Graduate Students</em><br /> <strong>Megan Chong, </strong>Tetrad PhD program<br /> <strong>‌Nicholas Stevers, </strong>Biomedical Sciences PhD program<br /> <strong>‌Emily Twedell, </strong>Neuroscience PhD program‌</p> <p><em>Postdocs</em><br /> <strong>Brooke Jarvie, PhD, </strong>Physiology<br /> <strong>‌Stephanie Sandoval-Pistorius, MS, PhD, </strong>Neurosurgery<br /> <strong>‌Finn Wolfreys, PhD, </strong>Ophthalmology</p> <p>‌<em><strong>Honorable Mentions:</strong></em></p> <p><strong>‌</strong><em>Graduate Students</em><br /> Darwin Kwok, Biomedical Sciences PhD program<br /> ‌Alexander Marr, Global Health Sciences PhD program<br /> ‌Ashley Mitchell, Global Health Sciences PhD program‌</p> <p><em>Postdocs</em><br /> Molly Hodul, PhD, Neurology<br /> ‌Andrew Nelson, PhD, Neurology<br /> ‌Parul Verma, PhD, Radiology‌</p> <p><a href="https://graduate.ucsf.edu/mentoring-2024" target="_blank"><strong>Learn more about this year’s awardees</strong></a><a href="https://graduate.ucsf.edu/mentoring-2024" target="_blank"><strong>.</strong></a></p> <div class="wysiwyg_twocols layout--50-50"> <div class="wysiwyg_twocols--first bg--transparent"> <figure class="image"><img alt="awardees and colleagues gather for a photo" height="384" src="/sites/g/files/tkssra2836/f/wysiwyg/2024-Mentoring-Awards-Kwok-Stevers-Group-formatted.jpg" width="576" /> <figcaption>Honorable mention recipient Darwin Kwok (front center) and awardee Nick Stevers (front right) celebrate the occasion with colleagues.
