Tiina Kauppinen
Recieves
2008 Jordi Folch-Pi Award
Monica Carson (left) presents Tiina Kauppinen (right) with the 2008 Jordi Folch-Pi Award at the ASN Annual Meeting in San Antonio, Texas. Dr. Kauppinen’s research focuses on molecular signals and effector pathways in microglial activation and their downstream impact on brain inflammatory responses.
The Jordi Folch-Pi Award is given to an outstanding young investigator who has demonstrated a high level of research competence and originality, who has significantly advanced our knowledge of neurochemistry and who shows a high degree of potential for future accomplishments.
Dr. Kauppinen will recieve $1500 and has been invited to organize a Symposium at the Charleston SC meeting.
Birgit Fogal
Receives 2008 Marian Kies Award
Jean Harry (left) presents Birgit Fogal (right) with the 2008 Marian Kies Award at the ASN Annual Meeting in San Antonio, Texas. During her graduate work Birgit focused on mechanisms by which inflammatory mediators contribute to the progression of neuronal injury following cerebral ischemia (or stroke).
This award is presented to an outstanding newly minted cellular and molecular neuroscientist.
Dr. Fogal will recieve $1500 and has been invited to organize a Symposium at the at the Charleston SC meeting.
