KAWSE ADVANCE Distinguished Lecture Series Award recipients
The K-State Office for the Advancement of Women in Science and Engineering, or KAWSE, congratulates the ADVANCE Distinguished Lecture Series, or ADLS, awardees for next academic year.
The purpose of this series is to encourage tenure-track faculty members in STEM departments to make new professional connections. These colleagues may become valuable mentors or research collaborators who can provide advice on manuscripts and grant proposals and may serve as outside references for tenure and promotion applications. Up to $1,200 will be provided by the KAWSE office to support each speaker.
Assistant professors:
- Mariana Garcia Junqueira, interior architecture and industrial design.
- Shijiao Huang, biochemistry and molecular biophysics.
- Vanessa Ante, biology.
Associate professors:
- Tatiana Firsova, mathematics.
