Johns Hopkins Catalyst Awards: 2017 Awardees

In July 2017, thirty-four early career faculty members were selected to receive Johns Hopkins Catalyst Awards, an honor that is accompanied by a $75,000 grant, mentoring opportunities, and institutional recognition. Recipients include faculty composing new musical work inspired by undiscovered islands, studying blindness to better understand human brain plasticity, and simulating the atmospheres of exoplanets to predict their habitability. Others are investigating treatments and interventions for depression, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, HIV, and Alzheimer’s disease.

These experts represent dozens of fields—including ophthalmology, mental health, chemistry, computer science, management, and composition—and are some of the most creative thinkers from across the University. We are proud to announce the 2017-2018 Catalyst Cohort.
