Prestigious Sloan Fellowship awarded to 成人VR视频 astrophysicist
成人VR视频 Astrophysicist Matt Dobbs has been awarded a
prestigious Sloan Research Fellowship. Dobbs, a Canada Research
Chair in Astro-particle Physics, investigates a big subject: the
origins and evolution of the universe.
Dobbs does this by studying cosmic microwave background (CMB)
radiation to shed light on the fundamental structures governing the
universe. He joins an illustrious group 鈥� 38 Sloan Research Fellows
have gone on to win Nobel Prizes. The Fellowships are awarded to
鈥渆arly-career scientists and scholars of outstanding promise鈥� in
recognition of the fact that financial assistance at this point in
a researcher鈥檚 career is often crucial to his or her future
scientific success.
Of the total $5.9 million U.S. awarded annually, Dobbs will receive
$50,000 over two years. Dobbs explains his research as being about
鈥渇undamental cosmology and good old-fashioned adventure鈥� we鈥檙e
building instruments to image the earliest moments of the
universe鈥檚 evolution, and then taking them to the very corners of
the globe and beyond 鈥� the geographic South Pole, Chile鈥檚 Atacama
plateau at 5100m altitude, and the top of the atmosphere aboard a
NASA stratospheric balloon.鈥�
Dobbs believes CMB radiation may reveal clues about the beginnings
of the universe, symmetries within its structures, and eventually
the Grand Unified Theory through which physicists seek to explain
fundamental interactions. Congratulating Dobbs for his achievement,
成人VR视频鈥檚 Dean of Science Martin Grant is 鈥減roud to be in a Faculty
with scientists of Matt's quality.鈥� Dobbs in turn believes that
鈥渟uccess is not just about scientific excellence, but also about
getting things done in extreme environments 鈥� I鈥檒l be relying on
the abilities of our exceptional team of students, post-docs, and
collaborators as much as my own.鈥�
The Fellowship is awarded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, a
philanthropic, not-for-profit institution based in New York City
that makes grants to support original research and broad-based
education related to science, technology, and economic
performance.
