Proteintech Announces Winner of 2017 Best Lab Manager

Proteintech, the benchmark in antibodies, today announced the winner of the 2017 Best Lab Manager Award. Receiving hundreds of votes, Clare McManus of The University of Manchester has been awarded $1000 towards her research.

Clare McManus was one of five lab managers from over 200 entries across the globe selected for public voting. Lab management is a challenging, exhausting endeavor, but one nominator mentioned that she is “someone you can rely on for help with lab work, lab facilities, as well as a person to bounce ideas off. She is integral to the Molecular Oncology group and we would be lost without her.”

“She is simply the lab manager you could wish for in your daily work and in case of emergencies. She has always been efficient and supportive, but then has been literally amazing in keeping the lab together after the major fire which significantly damaged the Paterson Building where much of our research took place, she has kept going the extra mile to find alternative solutions and then to facilitate the relocation to our new site,” another nominator noted.

“Clare is the embodiment of a stellar lab manager,” Dr. William Olds, Scientific Officer at Proteintech, said. “It is a wonderful gift each year to learn about and honor these selfless men and women.”

Proteintech supports the careers and development of scientists through a variety of initiatives, including annual travel grant competitions, mentorship awards, and a career podcast, The Incubator (available on Itunes). This month, Proteintech will begin Webinar Wednesdays, an opportunity for scientists to present their cutting-edge research to the world outside their department.
