Please join me in congratulating Igor Felippe and Pratik Thakkar, who were awarded the ISAC Machiko Shirahata Travel Award for their presentations at the International Society of Arterial Chemoreceptors held in Lisbon, Portugal.
This award is given to support doctoral and postdoctoral trainees to attend the international meeting of ISAC. The award is part of Machiko Shirahata’s (1950-2016) legacy – a tribute to honour her dedication to the studies of chemo-sensing properties of the carotid body.
