Happy to introduce our 25 2025 Alumni Scholarship Recipients!!

This year we have launched our 2025 Alumni Scholarship Fund to support 1st year grad students, graduates of our GSMI program, to cover educational expenses in their 1st year of graduate school.

I honestly feel incredibly aggrieved for those like me who learned they are losing their NIH funding, but also for everyone who gave their all to their application only for it to be dismissed and not even given the time of day.

Having a hard time processing this. HHMI is pausing all competitions. Very demoralizing for early career scientists like me @hhmi.org

As a current HHMI Gilliam fellow currently finalizing my dissertation and gearing up for a postdoc this fall, this is such a demoralizing email to receive.
