Three researchers from the shed have each been awarded a distinguished science research fellowship.

Ann Willis is the recipient of the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship - a program dedicated to help ensure the vitality and diversity of the scientific and engineering workforce of the United States. The program recognizes and supports outstanding graduate students who are pursuing research-based master's and doctoral degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and in STEM education.

And Allison Whipple and Denise De Carion are recipients of the Delta Stewardship Science Fellowship - awarded to outstanding candidates to pursue research on a variety of topics relevant to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The goal of the Delta Science Fellows Program is to bring together junior scientists with Delta agency scientists and senior research mentors to work collaboratively on data analysis and research projects relevant to Delta policy and management

This week, we will be highlighting each researcher and asking them a few interview questions. Check back in tomorrow for the first interview!

Congratulations to Ann Willis, Allison Whipple, and Denise De Carion on receiving their science research fellowships!
