David Mark Welch Receives Research Award
MBL Assistant Scientist David Mark Welch has been awarded the Neal Cornell Career Development Award. This newly established three-year award, the result of the generous support provided by The Neal W. Cornell Endowed Research Fund and the MBL Research Development Fund, was established to enhance research at the MBL by providing support and encouragement to scientists who are in the early stages of their research careers. Candidates for the award are Assistant Scientists who are in their first three-year appointment at the MBL. The recipient of the award is chosen by a committee consisting of the Director of the Bay Paul Center, the Director of the Ecosystems Center, and a scientist member of the MBL Board of Trustees. David will use the award to further his work on understanding why sexual recombination is necessary for the evolutionary success of multicellular life.
