ISB kicked off the seventh year of our successful Innovator Award Program by announcing three collaborative projects. This internal program is designed to support novel research ideas that cut across disciplines and research groups. Washington Research Foundation generously pledged $100,000 to fund the 2023 awards. ISB received additional funding from two generous donors — allowing ISB to support three proposals.
In his opening remarks, ISB President Dr. Jim Heath called out the strong outpouring of scientific interest that came from across the organization in support of the Innovator Award Program, and acknowledged everyone’s participation in elevating the program to something that was “really spectacular this year.”
