Emily McCall, a junior biology major with a pre-medicine concentration from Orangefield, was recently named a Presidential Summer Fellow and was awarded a $10,000 grant to fund her research in Kenya on Schistosoma mansoni, a parasitic flatworm estimated to afflict more than 200 million people worldwide according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. A Beck Fellowship finalist, McCall was selected for the Presidential Summer Fellowship after completing a rigorous application process that detailed her planned studies and how the experience of working alongside an established researcher would impact her life and career.
