(Picture thanks to Steve McCaw) Every year, the National Institutes of Wellness (NIH) Workplace of Intramural Training as well as Education holds a competition for fellows' research study abstracts. The results of the 2021 Fellows Honor for Research Excellence (MEALS) are actually right now in as well as NIEHS proceeded its sturdy proving, tallying 17 champions." NIEHS others carried out particularly well this year, along with our principle ranking 4th highest possible amongst all the NIH principle," wrote NIEHS Scientific Director Darryl Zeldin, M.D., and Colleague Director of the National Toxicology Plan Brian Berridge, D.V.M., Ph.D., in a July 16 character to team. "This speaks to the premium of research study carried out by our awesome others."
