Congratulations to Azalia Martinez Jaimes (Developmental Biology) and Kristy Red-Horse, PhD (Biology) on being named one of the student-adviser pairs for the 2024 Gilliam Fellows Program!
This year, Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) named 50 awardees from 43 academic institutes across the country in the largest competition in the program’s history:
“This marks the 19th year of the Gilliam Fellows Program competition and the first cohort to be named since the program transitioned from a nomination-based competition to a fully open competition. This transition helped increase the total number of program applications, leading to first-time Gilliam Fellows awards in Hawai’i, Montana, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Utah, and Washington, DC. All told, the Gilliam Fellows Program received applications from a record-breaking 162 different institutions. With the addition of the 2024 cohort, the Gilliam community now totals 501 scientists, including those who have graduated from the program.” - HHMI
