Keck Career Development Professor in Biomedical Engineering, and assistant professor in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences.
The Vallee Foundation award recognizes “outstanding young scientists at a critical juncture in their careers” and provides discretionary funds for biomedical research. Zhang will share the $750,000 prize with Kirsty Spalding of the Karolinska Institute and David Tobin at Duke University.
