Every researcher who spends time in The Hormel Institute’s labs drives our scientific progress forward. That includes our PACE researchers.
Every person on this page made the decision to dedicate themselves to biomedical research at The Hormel Institute for an entire year. As members of the inaugural cohort (2025-2026), these ambitious researchers were the trailblazers of our new program. They took ownership of their own research projects, honed their professional skills, and presented their work at key conferences.
