Recent ARCS Events

The 2023 ARCS Atlanta Scholar Awards Celebration (SAC) was a glorious recognition of scientific scholarship in the beautiful atrium of the Parker H. Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience (IBB) at Georgia Tech.  The 2023 SAC was a networking reception at which members, donors, and guests chatted informally with scholars to learn about their research.

ARCS Atlanta President Carolynn Cooper welcomed our scholars and guests and thanked Georgia Tech for hosting this event.  A scholar representing each of our schools spoke briefly, after which Georgia Tech President Angel Cabrera gave a brilliant speech on the importance of science and the ARCS mission.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLQSSp7yWzY  

In 2023, ARCS Atlanta gave awards to 49 scholars in many different disciplines from Emory, Georgia Tech, Morehouse and UGA.  All scholars exhibited poster displays in the atrium of the IBB.  A video “Igniting Innovation in Georgia” highlighted the history of ARCS and introduced each scholar.

Thanks from ARCS Atlanta Scholar Alum Deborah Kilpatrick, CEO Evidation Health

The work you (ARCS Foundation Atlanta members) have all done is tremendous, and I am so proud to be a part of that legacy.  I hope that my work is making you all feel that there has been a good return on your investment.

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!

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."
