We are pleased to announce Michelle Joyce as the new Foundation Relations Director for the College of Science
In this role, Michelle will work closely with the dean, faculty, chairs and Center/Institute directors to advance key scientific research priorities with national foundations. Dr. Joyce’s previous fields of research included small molecules and proteomics.
She was the Associate Director of Notre Dame’s Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Facility where her interests include providing schools with access to modern scientific instrumentation. A Domer who is the daughter of a retired Catholic high school principal, she has been a leader in developing a program–now known as ND LIGHTS (Laboratory Instrumentation Giving Hope to Students)–that donates working scientific instrumentation from retired or upgraded Notre Dame laboratories to schools in need of such equipment. Since 2010 ND LIGHTS has donated over 50 instruments to 19 schools nationally and in Africa.
Michelle received her Ph.D. from Duke University. Michelle and her husband, Tim, live in Granger with their two children, Ian and Analiese.
Please join me in welcoming Michelle to the team!
Yours in Notre Dame,
Carla Ingrando
