We were thrilled to have so many fantastic, highly deserving entries to the first of our Lab Heroes Awards, but the one that really stood out to our Scientific Advisory Board – and the first ever winner of our Lab Hero title – was Kimberley Evans.
Kimberley is a Research Assistant, soon to be Lab Manager, in the Karadottir Lab at the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute, University of Cambridge, UK. Her research is concerned with factors that affect myelination, and the role of white matter in Alzheimer's disease. We chatted to Kimberley to find out more about this lab hero!
The Lab Heroes Awards were launched with a very specific goal - to recognise and give back to the unsung champions of Life Sciences.
Scientists in labs across the world were nominated for a whole host of reasons - from dedication to their research to support of their colleagues. We’ve been humbled to see the level of appreciation evident in each nomination.
We are delighted to now announce the winners!
Maria is heading to Achucarro International Glial School! Find out more...
