Meet Scholarship Recipients

Many of our students receive scholarships and other funding — from BGE, Georgetown and outside organizations — to support their work.

Adriana Valenzuela

My life motto is, ‘Al mal tiempo, buena cara.’ It’s an old Spanish saying that translates to presenting a good disposition in the face of adversity.

Amira Mohamed

Health care workers could not provide the best possible and accessible health care to all communities without a proper understanding and interest in underprivileged and underrepresented minority issues.

Irfan Khan

I realize that a lot of the advice [my thesis mentor] has given for experiments or in analyzing data and results can be applied to things that can happen outside of the lab.
