Yale Child Study Center Assistant Professor Kartik Pattabiraman, MD, PhD recently received the Burroughs Wellcome Fund (BWF) 2022 Career Awards for Medical Scientists for his work on developmental disruption of prefrontal circuits as the neurodevelopmental etiology of schizophrenia.
The Career Awards for Medical Scientists is a highly competitive program that provides 5-year awards for physician-scientists to bridge advanced postdoctoral/fellowship training and the early years of faculty service.
“The talent in this year’s applicant pool was exceptional,” said Dr. Paige Cooper, BWF Program Officer. “BWF continues to be committed to investing in the careers of physician-scientists and we look forward to supporting their clinical research impact.”
