Welcome to the Michele Dufault Summer Research Fellowship and Conference Fund web site.
Michele loved physics and encouraged young women to pursue science careers.
To honor her memory and her projects, we have established the Michele Dufault Summer Research Fellowship and Conference Fund. The fund will support a summer fellowship for women in the physical sciences. It will also be used to support conferences that encourage young women to pursue the physical sciences, such as the National Conference on Undergraduate Women in Physics, for which Michele was a committed organizer.
We are working to raise $100,000 so that we can endow the Fund in perpetuity. On this site, you can learn more, donate, stay updated through our blog, contact us for more information, and get involved.
