UC Davis Graduate Studies is mourning the recent loss of Tara K. Telford, a strong supporter of graduate student research.

The Tara K. Telford Graduate Student Award, which was created to support graduate student research in the Department of Chemistry, was created and named in honor of Tara and touched the lives of numerous members of the graduate education community at UC Davis.

Tara was a graduate of the Mathematics department, a proud Aggie, and friend to so many on campus. Join Graduate Studies in honoring her memory by supporting the Tara K. Telford Graduate Student Award at UC Davis.
