Congratulations to the incoming members of the YSM Science Fellows Program! The 2024 Yale Fellows are Cliona Kelly, PhD, from Psychiatry and the Wu Tsai Institute; Claudia Mimoso, PhD, from Genetics; Pam Rios Coronado, PhD, from Cellular & Molecular Physiology; and Rebecca Starble, PhD, from Pathology.

They join the first class of Yale Fellows, who began in January: Brianna Duncan-Lowey, PhD, postdoctoral fellow in immunobiology; Sedona Murphy, PhD, postdoctoral associate in cell biology; and Madison Strine, PhD, postdoctoral associate in immunobiology.

The YSM Science Fellows Program is designed to support the research and postdoctoral careers of outstanding research scientists. The program aims to attract top PhD and MD/PhD recent graduates to engage in independent research, and support them in transitioning into open faculty positions at Yale or other institutions. Fellows receive mentorship and sponsorship, a generous stipend, and training in leadership, communication, and grant writing.
