The Porter Physiology Development Fellowship is awarded to trainees who are from backgrounds historically underrepresented in the field of physiology. The goals of the program are to encourage diversity amongst students pursuing full-time studies toward their PhD in the physiological science and their participation in APS.
The APS is pleased to announce the Porter Physiology Development Fellows on behalf of the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee.
