Flintridge Sacred Heart Student Wins Grant
Anna Kaminski of Pasadena, a junior at Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy, has been awarded a $250 research grant from the Southern California Academy of Sciences to continue her summer work in the laboratory of David Warburton, professor of pediatrics at Childrens Hospital of Los Angeles.
Kaminski began working last summer as a volunteer on the project to understand how growing lungs respond to injury. The purpose is to find new ways of preventing or treating severe chronic lung disease in children.
Kaminski, who will use the grant for supplies, plans a career in medical research.
