PULSE PI Tais Gorkhover wins LCLS Young Investigator Award for pioneering novel X-ray imaging methods
Tais Gorkhover, a principal investigator with the Stanford PULSE Institute, will receive the 2018 LCLS Young Investigator Award, granted to early-career scientists in recognition of exceptional research using the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray free-electron laser at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
Symposium on Frontiers in X-ray Physics: 09/24/2018
21 July 2018: In honor of the 70th birthday of Prof. Jerry Hastings, SLAC will host a one-day symposium on September 24, 2018 highlighting some of his contributions to the field of X-ray physics.
Additional information and registration for attendance are available at the symposium webpage.
Congratulations to PULSE PI Taisia Gorkhover on her DOE Early Career Award!
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Department of Energy (DOE) has selected 84 scientists from across the nation – including 30 from DOE’s national laboratories and 54 from U.S. universities – to receive significant funding for research as part of the DOE Office of Science’s Early Career Research Program. The effort, now in its ninth year, is designed to bolster the nation’s scientific workforce by providing support to exceptional researchers during the crucial early career years, when many scientists do their most formative work.
