The PRSM invites its members for a special evening celebrating scientific excellence and community. The 47th Dr. Arturo Carrión Memorial Lecture Award honors Dr. Filipa Godoy Vitorino for her outstanding contributions to microbiology and mentorship in Puerto Rico. This annual event brings together members of our society to recognize leadership, research, and the continued growth of the microbial sciences on the island. We look forward to sharing this meaningful occasion with our members in an evening of recognition, reflection, and connection.
