2022
RCSA made a gift in February 2022 to establish the Council on Undergraduate Research’s new Silvia Ronco Innovative Mentor Award. The award, in honor of CUR past president and RCSA Senior Program Director Silvia Ronco, recognizes a tenure-track faculty member within 10 years of their first faculty appointment who demonstrates success in chemical sciences and whose mentoring practices have supported undergraduate research. CUR selected Cottrell Scholar 2018 and Scialog: Chemical Machinery of the Cell Fellow Lou Charkoudian, chemistry, Haverford College, as the first recipient.
