In alignment with our mission, one of the goals of the Peripheral Nerve Society (PNS) is to help researchers’ careers and foster excellence in peripheral nerve research including clinical, translational, and basic science. In 2023, the PNS launched its Training Grant program, offering support to a junior clinical investigator and a junior scientist or clinician scientist. In 2024, the PNS Board unanimously approved the name change of the Basic Science Fellowship in honor of the late Dr. Laura Feltri, which was announced at our recent Annual Meeting.

 We are excited to announce the 2024 grant recipients who were presented with their awards at the PNS Annual Meeting this June.
