Balskus among Sloan Research Fellowship winners

Assistant Professor Emily Balskus has won one of this year's Sloan Research Fellowships, given to early-career scientists with the potential to lead their respective fields. The $50,000 fellowship covers a two-year period. “For more than half a century, the Sloan Foundation has been proud to honor the best young scientific minds and support them during a crucial phase of their careers when early funding and recognition can really make a difference,” said Dr. Paul L. Joskow, President of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. “These researchers are pushing the boundaries of scientific knowledge in unprecedented ways.” Congratulations, Emily!
