Congratulations to TAMIN student Nihal Salem who has been awarded a prestigious F99/K00 D-SPAN award from the National Institutes of Health! Nihal is the first student at Texas A&M to ever receive this award!
The purpose of the NIH Blueprint Diversity Specialized Predoctoral to Postdoctoral Advancement in Neuroscience (D-SPAN) Award is to support a defined pathway across career stages for outstanding graduate students who are from diverse backgrounds underrepresented in neuroscience research. This two-phase award will facilitate the completion of Nihal’s doctoral work on alcohol use and fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, as well as the transition to a strong neuroscience research postdoctoral position.
Congrats again to Nihal and all other D-SPAN awardees!
