Sara Faiad is on fire! In the past two weeks, she has been awarded:
- a UW Graduate School Boeing International Fellowship, which will provide one quarter of support for a research expedition in Madagascar, where Sara will study the transmission of human schistosomiasis;
- a foundry10 Research Grant, which will support Sara’s laboratory experiments on schistosomiasis here at UW; and
- a Women Divers Hall of Fame (WDHOF) 20 for 2020 Dive Training Grant, which will allow Sara to get SCUBA certified so that she can pursue research on how behavior mediates the risk of parasitic infection for marine fishes.
Way to go, Sara – we are all so proud of you!
