“I collaborated with Marie on four different research projects over the last several years. She has a scientific mind, excellent familiarity with the literature and research process, and develops clinically-relevant and directly applicable proposals. Her dedication to project completion is admirable, as is her ability to mediate the often challenging dynamic of group work. She is readily able to identify and secure the resources required to address research hypotheses. I hope to be able to collaborate with her again someday in the future!”
