Dear GIMS members:
As announced in Fall 2020, we successfully launched our first 2021 Student Presentation Award sponsored by GIMS in conjunction with the American Physical Society (APS) 2021 March meeting. We had ~ 50 student participants in GIMS sessions competing for the awards. On the basis of the evaluations of all contributed oral presentations by the assigned judges, we have selected six award winners for their outstanding presentations on high-impact work representing significant advances in the field of instrumentation or measurement sciences.
The winners are listed as below:
The accomplishment of the first GIMS student presentation award relies on all the efforts from the judges, session chairs and the GIMS committee. We’d like to acknowledge them and all the judges including Prof. J. Patrick Clancy from McMaster University, Prof. Angela Di Fulvio from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Dr. Joseph Hagmann from National Institute of Standards and Technology, Prof. Elias Garratt from Michigan State University, Dr. Michael Armstrong from Lawrence Livermore National Lab, Dr. Laurel Winter from Los Alamos National Laboratory, Dr. Roger Proksch from Oxford Instruments, Dr. Stephen Jesse from Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Prof. Alex Frano from University of California San Diego.
We will announce the information of awards winners on the GIMS website. The winners will receive an APS-issued certificate recognizing their achievement along with a monetary prize. We hope this award will encourage more students to work with and join the Instrument and Measurement Science topical group.
Thank you for your continued attention and we look forward to seeing you next year in the GIMS sessions at the 2022 APS March meeting!
Sincerely,
GIMS Student Awards Committee
Shan Wu, Matthew Smylie, Lahsen Assoufid
