Life Sciences Pennsylvania, Clarkson Consulting to Award $10K Scholarship

Intent on stoking passion for the life sciences, the Wayne-based state association formerly known as Pennsylvania Bio is again putting serious money behind its advocacy for and promotion of industry growth and development.

Life Sciences Pennsylvania and Clarkston Consulting of North Wales are now taking applications to discover the college sophomore who will become only the fifth to receive $10,000 over two years as the 2017 Clarkston Scholar.

“Each year, we find ourselves inspired by the dedication and talent of the Clarkston Scholar applicants,” Clarkston Consulting Partner and Life Sciences Industry Leader Janel Firestein said in a Philadelphia Business Journal announcement.

“It’s a privilege to collaborate with Life Sciences Pennsylvania and offer this opportunity to the minds that will shape tomorrow’s life science industry.”

The scholarship is open to high-performing college sophomores with a passion for life sciences who are enrolled in a four-year program and majoring in a life sciences discipline.
