Student Update
Greetings!,
Mannkal is gearing up for a busy first semester, with many interstate and international scholarships being announced in the coming weeks! We also have several events and opportunities planned for the coming semester so please see below for those you may be interested in.
In recent weeks, Emma Crisp, Mannkal's star Research Assistant, has left us to pursue graduate opportunites overseas. In her place we have appointed Felicity Karageorge, a former Mannkal Intern. If you have any questions or comments, I'm sure Felicity will be able to help you! Please contact her at felicity@mannkal.org
For those of you studying I hope first semester is off to a good start!
