Keynote Speaker, Dr. Robert Dirksen, Professor and Chair at the University of Rochester Medical Center
As you can probably tell from the prior posts, the 34th annual Ohio Physiological Society conference was a great meeting filled with exciting new developments in research. However, I would be remiss if I did not mention the outstanding students who received awards for their presentations at the conference.
Award winners from left to right: Grace Adkins, Hannah Newton, Rishi Mehta, Darren Gordon, Dylan Schindele, Tara-Yesomi Wenegieme, Usman Ashraf, Vighnesh Ramesh, Vaibhavkumar Gawali, Elizabeth R. Evans, T Alex Ruwe, and Amjad Aljagthmi
Below are the 2019 Ohio Physiological Society Travel Award Winners (also pictured above). Each recipient was given $750 to attend the upcoming 2020 Experimental Biology meeting in San Diego. I look forward to seeing their presentations!
