We are proud to announce that our colleague Yngve Öhrn has been named the 2003-2004 University of Florida Teacher/Scholar of the Year. Among other distinctions Yngve served 12 years as QTP’s Director, was Chair of Chemistry, and is the co-author of the famous “yellow book” “Propagators in Quantum Chemistry”. Congratulations Yngve on this well-deserved recognition!
Robert Abel and Ryan Chancey have done it again!It wasn’t long ago that they received awards. Robert the Goldwater Foundation Fellowship and Ryan the University Scholars Award. Now they have each won an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and Ryan has received a Fulbright Fellowship. You can see the details of their NSF awards at http://www.nsf.gov/grfp. Robert plans to use his fellowship at one of the schools that has accepted him, but has not decided yet (Scripps, UCSD, Columbia or Minnesota). Ryan will spend some time at Odense in Denmark, continuing his PhD in Engineering.
