Deluca Scientific Achievement Award. Meanwhile, Dr. Sue Wallace, CEO of Voximetry, earned the Wisconsin Biohealth Business Achievement Award.

“We take great pride in honoring these remarkable individuals for their outstanding achievements, which not only exemplify the innovation within Wisconsin’s biohealth sector but also underscore Wisconsin’s position as a hub of excellence in both scientific innovation and business leadership,” BioForward CEO Lisa Johnson said in a statement.
