Join us in Moore Auditorium at 4:00 p.m. to hear students enrolled in the ITVS Pathway present their research and compete for the inaugural Winston Fellow Award in Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences.
Reception to follow at 5:15 p. m. outside Moore Auditorium. The winner will be announced.
In-person attendance is strongly encouraged. To attend virtually\, please contact Jen na Krizan (krizanj@wustl.edu).
In December 2022\, David (A&S ‘74) and Deborah Winston made a generous gif t to establish the Winston Fellow Award in the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences.
This unique award will support graduate students who are receiving specific training in vision science through the Interdis ciplinary Training in Vision Sciences Pathway. The overall goal of the prog ram is to attract a group of gifted\, well-trained biomedical scientists to careers in vision research to continue unlocking the mysteries of eye dise ase.
