Jeff Coller Receive Johns Hopkins Sesquicentennial Award

Jeff Coller, received an Envisioning the Future Award, as part of Johns Hopkins University’s 150th anniversary. The Sesquicentennial Awards Program recognizes exceptional projects that reflect the university’s legacy of discovery while looking boldly toward the future. From artistic expression to forward-thinking research and convening, this cycle’s awardees represent the depth and diversity of the Hopkins community, spanning students, faculty, staff, and alumni across all 10 schools.

Coller, MBG faculty, Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of RNA Biology and Therapeutics, and director of the RNA Innovation Center, will use the award to support his project Bridging Science and Sustainability, where he is hosting a symposium in Washington DC on solving the economics and sustainability of N-of-1 genetic medicines.

Awards are available in two categories: the Envisioning the Future Awards, which support academic programming that brings scholars from Hopkins and beyond together to reflect on the current state of their fields and envision how Hopkins can enhance future scholarly contributions, and the Artistic Lens Awards, which support ideas that engage the Hopkins community with artistic and creative offerings exploring the university’s past, present, and future.
