Recent ARCS Events

Over 70 ARCS members and their guests came together for our Annual Membership Meeting on May 8, 2024, at Ansley Golf Club.  The fascinating program was put together by Barbara Bazzel and expertly moderated by Bill Liss.  It featured three of our current ARCS Scholars, Nicole Hood (Epidemiology – Emory), Tawfik Hussein (Biomedical Engineering – Georgia Tech), and Logan Kavanaugh (Microbiology and Molecular Genetics – Emory), discussing their current research and its relevance to our lives. 

The program was followed by our May board meeting.  A highlight of the meeting was the recognition of Marcia and John Donnell for their commitment to ARCS and their support of a full scholar award for 25 years.  Thank you, Marcia and John!
 

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 Alum Courtney Pollard, III, MD, PhD, MedStar Harbor Hospital, Baltimore

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 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."
