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 Alum Tim Sampson, Postdoctoral Scholar at Caltech

I am immensely grateful to the ARCS Foundation and Turner Enterprises for making my award possible. I am honored to have been part of the talented and promising group of young researchers from the Atlanta-area!

Thanks from Alum Collette Miller, Postdoctoral Fellow at US Environmental Protection Agency

"Thank you all for reaching out and the support over the years. It's been a rocky few years following the passing of my doctoral research mentor a few weeks prior to my dissertation defense. Trying to rebound from his loss, finishing my dissertation, and figuring out where to go from there was challenging to say the least ... Thank you again for your support. Honestly I did not know how much I would have ended up relying on the generous gift that the Atlanta Chapter of ARCS Foundation provided when it was first received. However, it was vital in helping me launch a new chapter in my career when I found my plans collapse when my mentor passed. Again, THANK YOU!"
