McMaster welcomes three new Banting Postdoctoral Fellows
Three McMaster postdoctoral researchers have received the 2023 Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship.
Steve Hranilovic, McMaster’s Vice-Provost and Dean of Graduate Studies, expressed his excitement in welcoming such talented individuals to an already rich and diverse community of postdoctoral researchers.
“The Banting Fellowship is one of Canada’s most prestigious postdoctoral awards. Our McMaster community is enriched by the addition of these world-class postdoctoral fellows and I am thrilled they are receiving such distinguished recognition for their work,” Hranilovic says.
The university’s newest Banting recipients will be conducting research in the faculties of Health Sciences and Social Sciences.
