Carter Presidential Center Visit

On April 17, 2013, the Atlanta Chapter of ARCS Foundation visited the Carter Presidential Center in Atlanta. The Carter Center takes action on a shared dream of a caring global community. In 1982, President and Mrs. Carter entered into a partnership, with Emory University, that is committed to advancing human rights, alleviating unnecessary suffering, and improving the quality of life for people in more than 65 countries. This partnership is working to create a world where every man, woman, and child has an opportunity to enjoy good health and to live in peace. The day’s activities included a presentation by Dr. John B. Hardman, President and CEO, and a tour of the Jimmy Carter Library & Museum led by Tony Clark, Museum Specialist.

Thanks from Scholar Kevin Yehl

"I was very fortunate to be selected as one of this year's ARCS scholars... I plan to pursue an academic career in chemistry... Your support will allow me to continue my biomedical research in developing novel strateigies to treat drug resistant cancers and cardiovascular diseases... Again, thank you so much for your support of the sciences and post graduate education, both of which are very important in keeping America competitive..."

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."

Thanks from Alum Alejandro Toriella, PhD, Assistant Professor, Industrial Engineering, Georgia Tech

Thank you very much for your support. It meant a lot. I had the opportunity to return to Tech as a faculty member last year. I’m very happy to be back and hope I can advise a future ARCS scholar soon!
