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."
ARCS Foundation members and their husbands travelled to Washington, D.C. for a fabulous ARCS Retreat on April 24 – 28, 2024. We stayed at the historic and beautifully reimagined Willard Hotel and enjoyed amazing insider tours at the Hillwood Estate & Gardens, the Children’s National Research and Innovation Campus, NTI - the global nuclear threat initiative think tank, as well as dinners with National Institute of Health research scientists and early morning access to the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. We heard from nationally renowned speakers who gave us new insights into current security initiatives, scientific and medical research, and museums of historical prominence. Our perfect ending was a private-chartered dinner cruise on the Potomac River. Thank you to Liz Troy and Janis Henry for planning this remarkable retreat to Washington, D.C.

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