  • by Betsy Huynh

Congratulations to Jonathan Berlingeri who will be joining this year's cohort of fellows in the UC Davis Professors for the Future program! This program recognizes graduate students for their “academic performance, leadership potential, desire to serve the needs of students and scholars and interest in participating in graduate and postdoctoral education,” and prepares them to teach and lead others as they move on. We are so excited to see what Jonny and the other program fellows will accomplish in the upcoming year!
