EHI Graduate Student Research Grant Awards
This year is the fifth year of the EHI’s student grants programme and 31 applications were received. The EHI Science Advisory Board, who is responsible for allocating the grants, was once again very impressed with the quality of applications received. After careful assessment, the following projects were selected to receive grants.
