Two student testimonials about the benefits of external funding, accompanied by their portraits.  Transcribed Text:  “External funding has transformed my first-year experience, granting me opportunities to collaborate with mentors who otherwise would have been out of reach. It has given me the freedom to pursue research that I am truly passionate about and explore uncharted avenues willingly and rigorously, knowing that my funding is secured and my work is supported.”  Megan Damaris Marks 1st year PhD student Molecular & Cellular Biology & Pathobiology  "Donors are the superheroes behind tomorrow's research superheroes. Their backing truly multiplies what a researcher can achieve, allowing PIs and students to take a breath in the endless storm of funding and focus on dreaming bigger, unlocking collaborations, and driving discoveries forward. As a donor recipient myself, I can personally attest that the backing from a donor does not just open doors to labs and techniques you never thought possible it makes you truly believe that you belong behind them."  Tevo’n Andrew Paterson Campbell 1st year PhD Student Biochemistry & Molecular Biology
