A joint meeting of the 2021-2022 and the 2022-2023 boards was held on June 1 at the home of our outgoing president Leslie Petter.  Incoming president Sara Jean Burke presented Leslie with a beautiful Simon Pearce vase to commemorate her two years as president.  Celebratory champagne and hors d’oeuvres followed the board meeting.

ARCS Foundation has been a highlight of my academic career thus far, thank you for the support!

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.
