Congrats Emily and Wenchao on your Fellowships!

Wenchao was awarded the Susan G. Komen CHETP fellowship. This program is funded by a Susan G. Komen TREND (Training Researchers to Eliminate Disparities) grant along with a gift from CIBC bank and philanthropic support. These funds enable Master’s students, PhD students and postdoctoral fellows to train in cancer health disparities by gaining valuable experience and perspective in clinical, community and policy engagement.

Emily was awarded a University of Chicago Stamps Scholarship, selected among 272 exceptional students from over 473,000 applications. On the basis of academic performance, leadership, dedication to service, and character, the award provides a merit enrichment grant of $20,000 to support her research and other endeavors over the course of her third and fourth years in the College. The 2023 cohort includes students attending 37 partner institutions in the US and UK.
