In 2023 we awarded over $51,000 in scholarships to Biochemistry undergraduates. These scholarships were established by grateful biochemistry alumni, inspired charitable foundations, and supportive faculty and community members who believe that a biochemistry degree provides a foundation for advanced medical careers, biomedical and advanced scientific discoveries, a basic and deep understanding of how the living world functions, and more. In 2024, we willÌýcontinue recognizing stand-out scholars and hope to increase opportunities for our growing student body.
