A Cardiff University scientist, Dr Valerie O'Donnell, was among the researchers honoured on the 12 March 2008 at the European Science Awards Ceremony. Dr O'Donnell, of the University’s School of Medicine, received one of five 'Marie Curie Excellence Awards', which recognise excellent researchers who have participated in the EU's researcher exchange programme. Awards were also given recognising excellence in multinational research teams and in science communication. The winners were selected by three separate Grand Juries, one for each category, composed of leading figures from European and international science. They share an award fund of almost €2m.
