Earlier this year, eleven of our Excellence and Odyssey biomedical research awardees participated in a pilot to hone their skills in crafting scientific messages for specific audiences, culminating in the production of brief videos about their research.

These videos, funded by the Foundation, and produced in partnership with Health Resources in Action and In the Car, will be used by participants to communicate what they do and its importance to human health.
