Women in Bio (WIB) has established the Robbie Melton Scholarship Fund in honor of the organization’s co-founder to support and encourage women who are building their careers in the life sciences industry. Two $1,000 scholarships are available. Applicants must be a woman currently working within the life sciences industry or a current student working toward a degree in a life science industry-related field.
WIB is now accepting applications for both scholarships. If you, or someone you know, are an eligible candidate for one of the awards, visit their website for more information and to download the application. The application deadline is January 31, 2011. Send completed applications to info@womeninbio.org.
