Honours student, Cindy Ho has been awarded a Monash
University Honours Jubilee Scholarship in recognition of her undergraduate academic
achievement.
Cindy is completing her honours project in Professor Richard
Ferrero’s laboratory, with the title, “Understanding the impact of the
virulence factor CagM on host gene expression during Helicobacter pylori infection.”
“I have always been interested in using bioinformatics to
address questions relating to microbiology and more specifically, Helicobacter pylori. This project was
the perfect opportunity for this and I very am excited for what’s to come,”
Cindy says.
The Monash University Jubilee Honours Scholarship was
introduced to acknowledge the 50th anniversary of Monash University.
The academic criteria is a minimum of a high distinction
average (80 per cent or above) in previous tertiary studies, in this case
Cindy’s undergraduate degree, the Bachelor of Biomedical Science (Scholar
Program).
The scholarship is valued at $6000 for one year, with 50
scholarships awarded each year university-wide.
“This scholarship will allow me to focus solely on my
Honours year without having to worry about working extra hours. I am extremely
grateful for this scholarship and will make this Honours year my best year
yet,” Cindy says.
