Meriem recently attended the 2023 Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minoritized Scientists (ABRCMS) conference in sunny Phoenix, Arizona. She presented a poster entitled, "Characterizing New Humanized Mouse Models for Investigating HIV-1 Infection," which was based on experiments she completed with Chandra this semester.

Not only did Meriem receive a travel grant to attend ABRCMS, she won an award in immunology for her poster presentation! We are so proud of her and we look forward to more exciting data on her new project next semester!

Great job, Meriem!
