Moni wins Biodesign Travel Grant…you can too!

Hello everyone!  

I have good news to share.  

In February, I received the Biodesign Travel Grant for a total of $500!

This grant will be used towards my expenses for Battelle’s Twelfth International Conference on Remediation of Chlorinated and Recalcitrant Compounds in Portland, Oregon from May 31st– June 4th, 2020. I will be presenting on my work featuring sulfate-reducing bioreactors for the treatment of acid mine drainage.

HERE is a link for anyone who is traveling and would like to apply for the next round of awards due May 15, 2020.

Evelyn Miranda is a third-year graduate student in the Biological Design Program and the School for Engineering of Matter, Transport, and Energy in the Ira A. Fulton School of Engineering. She studies the removal/precipitation of metals through the use of sulfate-reducing bacteria in bioreactors.
