In a recognition for his outstanding qualities in mentoring and supporting undergraduate research, we nominated Dr. Lagally for the URO Mentorship Award. Today, we are very happy to announce that he just won the award (got the news from CHBE)! Here is a snippet from the application:
Faced with a disorganized group of undergraduates with widely varying levels of research experience, a competition in a field that was just emerging, and a desperate need for funding and resources in the middle of an economic recession, Dr. Lagally poured himself into the effort and, was able to produce a Gold-medal winning team that has been lauded in the Ubyssey and UBC Reports, as well as honoured before the Board of Governors.
Congratulations again Dr. Lagally!
