The Block award is given to one promising young physicist at each winter conference, in honor of the founder of the winter conference series, Martin Block.

Meagan began her training in science communication in 2010 as an inaugural member of the Reach for the Stars program, to which she returned in 2013 in a leadership capacity and founder of the Graduate Student Speaker Series.
