Announcing Gabriel Trujillo Memorial Field Work Scholarship Recipients

Gabriel Trujillo Field Work Scholarship

Established in 2024, the Gabriel Trujillo Field Work Scholarship at UC Berkeley was created by the Graduate Assembly. In June 2023, Gabriel Trujillo (Nahua and Opata), a doctoral student in Integrative Biology, was tragically murdered while conducting field research in Sonora, Mexico. Gabriel was a beloved member of the University of California, Berkeley graduate student community, and his loss will be deeply mourned by many for years to come.

Two recipients of the scholarship were selected for their continuation of Gabriel’s legacy, honoring Indigenous field work and stewardship:
