A message from Dr. Piper
"Receiving the Stanley J. Dudrick Research Scholar Award is an incredible honor.  Dr. Dudrick is an inspiration to the field of nutrition science and a true hero to the population of patients I care for, children with intestinal failure. I feel extremely fortunate to be recognized by ASPEN for the work I am doing through nutritional research.  When I reflect on the amazing accomplishments of previous Dudrick Award recipients, it is clear that his energy and enthusiasm continue to move us forward collectively as we discover novel ways nutrition science can be used to diagnose and treat illness. I am forever grateful to Dr. Dudrick and the ASPEN community."
