Congratulations to Chantelle Giesbrecht and Isabel Taake for receiving CIHR CGS-D Doctoral Research Awards. These are prestigious 3-year awards. Great work Chantelle and Isabel!
The department would like to congratulate Deyar Asmaro for being awarded the Michael Smith Foreign Study Supplements scholarship (CGS-MSFSS).
This means that Deyar will be leaving SFU in Jan, 2013 to the MD Anderson Cancer Centre University of Texas for 3 months (possibly 6).
The Government of Canada launched this program in 2008 to support high-calibre graduate students in building global linkages and international networks through the pursuit of exceptional research experiences at research institutions outside of Canada. By accessing international scientific research and training, CGS-MSFSS recipients will contribute to strengthening the potential for collaboration between Canadian and international universities and affiliated research institutions.
