Young scientist smoothes the way for women in science
Biomedical
engineering undergraduate Maria Trinh was awarded the 2001
B.C.
Premier's Award for Young Women in Science for her outstanding
academic performance and her commitment to advancing women in
science. Alarmed by the dropout rate of women in engineering
courses, Trinh founded the SFU Women in Engineering group in
2000 to help build camaraderie and confidence among her female
peers.
