We have three PEAK award winners: Christina Aniolek (top left) won the Base Camp award, Iris Chang (bottom left) won the Ascent award, and Stephen Landry (right) also won the Ascent award. These PEAK awards were all bestowed in response to each of their research proposals.
Christina and Stephen work under the guidance of PhD candidate, Bryan Schellberg, and Iris operates alongside PhD student, Brent Buchinger. With such excellent students and mentors, these teams are sure to make new discoveries!
