Community: SCHOLARS IN NEUROSCIENCE


Talk about doing good and doing well, the Pauletta and Denzel Washington Family Gifted Scholars Program in Neuroscience recently awarded Lindsay Ross (left) and Debi Thomas (center) with Neuroscience Research Scholarships. Denzel then interviewed the two.
He and his wife established the program in 2004 to support and encourage students to pursue a career in neuroscience. It provides $2,500 monthly support for a graduate-level research and $2,000 per month for an undergraduate. Recipients work during the summer months under the direction of respected physicians, neurosurgeons and scientists, and prepare a scientific abstract or paper to submit to a national neuroscience, cancer or neurosurgery organization.
