Rachelle Gaudet, Assistant Professor at Harvard University in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, is a recipient of the 2004 McKnight Scholar Award. This prestigious award is being granted to young neurobiologists who are in the early stages of establishing their independent laboratories. The McKnight Endowment Fund seeks innovative research in the field of brain function and diseases.
“To accomplish my long-term research goal of uncovering the mechanism of temperature sensing by TRP channels, I will need the recognition, support and collaboration of the neuroscience community,” says Gaudet, “and receiving a McKnight Scholar Award is a wonderful show of support and interest from established neuroscientists.”
