The Richard Hoeschen Award for supervisors of BScMed students; made
possible through donations and support of the Manitoba Medical Services
Foundation, friends and family of Richard Hoeschen, Manitoba Blue Cross and
the St. Boniface Hospital Research Centre. One half of the value of the award is
supported by the St. Boniface Research Centre. This award was created to
support BScMed supervisors without other sources of funding (such as
external grant support or access to funds that would offset the expenses
related to the student project. This year we have chosen 3 supervisors to share
in this award.
