CHICAGO, Jan. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The SBB Research Group Foundation is proud to announce the continued success of Michelle Lam after receiving the STEM Scholarship in 2023. The $2,500 award empowers students to create value for society by pursuing higher learning through interdisciplinary combinations of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).

Michelle Lam received the SBB Research Group Foundation STEM Scholarship during her first year at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering.
