New NIH Director cites Whitehead Fellows program as a model for young investigators

In honor of Women’s History Month, we asked Whitehead Institute community members if they would share stories about women who have inspired them, both professionally and personally. This year we are honoring extraordinary mentors, talented scientists, and gracious friends. Here are some of their stories. 

In this video, learn about Whitehead Institute's mission and values, and meet some of the researchers who are pursuing a diverse set of scientific questions in areas including cancer, regeneration and cell dynamics.

In an increasingly interconnected and complex world, collaboration is more important than ever for progress in science. By coming together, scientists can share knowledge and ideas to solve complex problems, learn new skills, and advance their careers. Researchers at Whitehead Institute recognize the importance of collaboration when taking on big challenges in science.
