Science. Awarded by L'Oréal USA, the
fellows program each year recognizes five outstanding
U.S.-based women researchers at the start of their
careers. Recipients receive up to $60,000 towards
their postdoctoral research.

Anisa a postdoctoral research fellow in molecular
biology, studies the commensal (friendly)
bacteria found in mammalian intestines and that are
critical to human health. Ismail will study the
possibility that commensals and mammalian cells

quorum sensing to establish this beneficial
relationship.

The 2013 fellows were selected from more than 350
candidates based on specific criteria,
including exceptional academic records, intellectual
merit, clearly articulated research proposals with the
potential for scientific advancement, and
outstanding letters of recommendation..
