When you publish with us, we have the funds to support Early Career members like George. In this series, we asked George to update us on how he is using his Research Visit Grant support provided by the Society. Stay tuned to hear more from George as they update us on the research visit.

In the text, George explains he has received a grant and talks about his research on M. tuberculosis. He explains he will use the grant funds to travel to Yale. lightbulb graphic. In the text, George explains his PhD on the use of antibiotics to eliminate M. tuberculosis. graphic that represents a road which ends at a destination. In the text, George explains how his grant to travel to Yale will help him develop and understand his research.

I am so sad for American science and scientists. America used to be the go to place for international post docs. No longer I'm sure.
