Jane Warren Trainee Conference Award recipients announced

HEI is excited to showcase the work of the 2021 Jane Warren Trainee Conference Award winners in a webinar on May 13th from 10 am to 12 pm EDT.

Each year, HEI invites abstract submissions from students or postdocs and then sponsors travel for several award winners to our Annual Conference to present posters detailing their latest research. This year, the Jane Warren awardees will give talks as part of HEI’s Annual Conference webinar series. They will also receive a cash prize and partake in a networking session with other experts in air pollution-related fields.

The award is presented in remembrance of Jane Warren, who joined HEI in the 1980s and served as the Director of Science from 1999 until her retirement in 2008.
