Annual Awards Ceremony
Each year, the GPILS/OPS Awards Ceremony publicly recognizes the outstanding achievements of our students, faculty, and postdoctoral fellows. These awards not only acknowledge our community’s scientific performance, but also the strong devotion to service, mentorship, and teaching that we see on campus every day.
This event is generously funded by the Graduate School, Dental School, and School of Medicine.
This year's nomination deadline is Friday, August 11.
