Congratulations, Angelina! Best of luck in your studies. MROO is happy to support your research in women's health and aging.

Congratulations to 2026 Labarge Scholarship recipient Angelina Baric who has received a 2026 Targeted Scholarship from the Municipal Retirees Organization Ontario - MROO. Angelina's research centres on understanding the long-term health effects of ultra-processed food consumption, with a particular emphasis on women’s health across the life course. She is working to understand where diet may increase or reduce the risk of health and functional complications after menopause among Canadian women with a focus on mobility outcomes, which are critical to maintaining independence and quality of life in older age.

MROO Targeted Scholarships support graduate students in Ontario who are doing research or pursuing a career that will positively impact the lives of seniors.
