2020 Events

In March of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic dictated that there could be no in-person events and all events were held virtually. The Fall Party was held via Zoom with games and breakout rooms to introduce our new members. The Scholar Awards Celebration highlighted our scholars and several major donors. There was also an excellent presentation by Dr. Ann Chahroudi on COVID-19 in Children. One very successful idea was Zoom conversations between Donors and their Scholars. Two examples of these Zoom conversations are below:

Thanks from Scholar Natale Sciolino

"Thank you dearly for your generous contribution to my scientific development. Your contribution has had a profound impact on me at both a personal and professional level. It is a privilege to be an ARCS Scholar, and with this support I will continue to pursue research that aims to advance Neuroscience."
