The QBMA's Annual Gala and Award Ceremony will be held on Friday May 27th at 6pm at Le Nouvel Hotel, 1740 René-Lévesque Ouest, Montréal, QC, H3H 1R3.
At this event, which will be dedicated to the memory of our founding President Dr. Elrie Tucker, we will remit scholarships to recipients chosen for their academic successes as well as for their demonstrated social consciousness. Selected recipients will also partake in a poster presentation symposium, showcasing their unique laboratory or literature research skills.
QBMA’s Board invites your presence at this year's event. Tickets are $125 and a tax receipt will be provided for the portion of the ticket in excess of the cost of attendance. Separate online donations (www.qbma.ca) or mailed donations are welcome. Donations over $1500 will result in scholarships named at the behest of the donor and honorable mention on our promotional materials and website.
A group of "Friends of QBMA" are also soliciting for sponsor/sponsors for the establishment of a Dr. E.C. memorial scholarship, named after our Illustrious founder. The criteria for this scholarship may differ from other scholarships and include entrepreneurial spirit, and pursuits beyond biomedical and medical realms.
