Ronnie Miller Graduate Scholarship in Personalized Medicine
This award arises from a new joint initiative of Rx&D and Hoffman-LaRoche Canada to provide $50,000 over 5 years to support a graduate student studying personalized medicine in the Department of Biochemistry at UBC. The award is named to honour former Board Chairman, M. Ronnie Miller, to recognize his leadership in the field of life sciences and health research.
The current plan is to present the award during the annual meeting of the Canadian Society for Pharmaceutical Sciences (CSPS), to be hosted at UBC this year from June 11 to 14. The theme of this year’s conference is Personalized Medicine and Ronnie Miller has been invited to speak on June 11.
The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is extremely grateful to the donors for their exceptional generosity.
