Adam and Sonya Balderston Awards
The Adam and Sonya Balderston Awards provide financial support to returning undergraduate students at the University of Prince Edward Island who demonstrate significant financial need. Two awards of $1,000 each are granted annually: one to a student in the Faculty of Business program, and another to a student in a health sciences-related program such as Nursing, Paramedicine, Foods and Nutrition, or Kinesiology. These awards were established through a multi-year commitment by Adam and Sonya Balderston, who are generous community benefactors dedicated to supporting education at UPEI. The Balderstons have been giving to UPEI since 2003, and their gift is pledged over five consecutive years with installments of $3,000 per year. Adam is an investment advisor who graduated from UPEI in 1997 with a BBA in accounting, while Sonya is a registered nurse who graduated from UPEI in 1997 with a BScN. Their commitment reflects their deep care for making a positive impact in their community through supporting students in greatest financial need.
Power Life Sciences Scholarship for Clinical Trial Accessibility
The Power Life Sciences Scholarship for Clinical Trial Accessibility is designed to support talented students who are passionate about biomedical and biopharmaceutical innovation. This scholarship awards $4,000 USD annually, split between two recipients: $2,000 for a student enrolled in a US-based high school, college, or university, and $2,000 for an undergraduate, masters, or doctoral student aged 18 or older enrolled in a non-US based institution. The scholarship aims to help aspiring innovators and clinicians learn to contextualize, interpret, and dig deeper into clinical trial data. Selection is not based on academic performance but rather on the ability to critically analyze real clinical trial data in the style of the Clinical Trial Data Notes peer-reviewed journal. Scholarship winners will also be eligible to publish their work in the journal, providing valuable publication opportunities for students entering the biomedical field.
