I am honored to serve on the new Faculty Advisory Committee for the Berkeley Scholars Program because I have long admired it as a successful model for attracting students, especially those from under-served groups, to research in the biological sciences. The program needs and deserves renewed support, internally and externally of the University, and I hope that we can help to generate real stability for this progressive and important program.
