Kath successfully applied for a bursary from the Mineralogical Society. She will receive £500 to cover travel expenses for conducting a part of her PhD research in the lab of Prof Joseph Stucki at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. As the award letter points out, ‘very few applicants are awarded the full amount requested’ – but Kath was one of these very few!
Well done Kath and congratulations!
