So proud of our brilliant student Anuijan. His work on alcohol and tobacco use is thoughtful, rigorous and deeply meaningful. Thrill to see him win the Alan Wu poster competition. The future is bright.
Proud to highlight one of our Research Trainees, Anuijan, who recently received the Alan Wu Poster Competition Honourable Mention for his outstanding presentation during the IMS Scientific Day.
