Maddi Tory

"For someone with Lupus, the STEM without limits scholarship allows me to focus my energy on my studies, my research and volunteering especially during a flare, when holding an additional part time job would not be realistic. Further this scholarship will allow me to participate in national and international conferences on chronic pain and in the field of neuroscience which would otherwise be in accessible to me."
