TRP student receives prestigious U of T Student Leadership Award
Sally Moy receives the sought-after USTL Award 2022
The University of Toronto Student Leadership Award continues U of T’s long-standing tradition of recognizing outstanding student leadership, service, and commitment to the university. During the award’s 25-year history, it celebrated the exemplary contributions of more than 4,000 students whose commitment and service had a lasting impact on their peers and the university.
This year, the Translational Research Program’s Sally Moy is on the recipient’s scroll for her exceptional leadership and passion to be the change she wants to see in the world.
As a young, focused woman in science, Sally joined the translational research program to bridge gaps and bring innovations in healthcare to the people who need it, hoping that she can inspire the next generation of scientists.
Sally is a spear-header for many reasons, but her out-of-the-box approaches are what makes her stand apart.

“I feel so honoured to be one of the recipients of the 2022 University of Toronto Student Leadership Award. As a master’s student in the Translational Research Program (TRP), we are taught that ecosystems matter and so I have devoted myself to making a positive impact both inside and outside of TRP by leading student initiatives centered around education, citizenship, and community,” Sally said on her leadership award.
We’d like to congratulate Sally on this wonderful achievement and wish her all the best for her future endeavours.
