Recent ARCS Events

It was a beautiful Sunday evening for the 2023 Fall Party at the home of Carolynn Cooper and Pratap Mukharji.  President Carolynn Cooper welcomed the group of 90 guests, and VP Membership Liz Lauer introduced seven of our twelve new members: Jamie Deeter, Laura Draper, Meg Heyer, Eileen Higgins, Debby Kelly, Niv Persaud and Kathryn Richard.  We missed Meredith Bell, Lisa Brown, Maggie Joslin, Suzanne Sullivan and Macie Thompson, but look forward to welcoming them at our meeting in January.  Many thanks to Special Events Chair Laura Pease and Chair-elect Tricia Rosenbaum who created this fabulous end of summer barbecue!

Let me start by saying how thankful I am for being selected as an ARCS scholar.  I consider it one of my greatest achievements thus far and I am immensely proud to count myself as one of the amazing group of students that your organization selected to receive this award.  I want you ladies to know you are doing an outstanding job!  You all are embarked on a truly altruistic endeavor and it is my fervent prayer that this organization thrives for years to come.

Thanks from Scholar Kira Newman

"I can only begin to express how grateful I am for the freedom to pursue an independent line of research without having to worry about how I will pay for the necessary lab supplies or training. This award is allowing me to answer broader and more valuable questions than I had previously thought possible... Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and belief in my potential as a scientist."

Thanks from Scholar Laura Redmond

"I want to thank you again for supporting my career development, and I look forward to encouraging the development of future scientists as an ARCS Scholar Alum."
