Sharon Gerbode named a 2016 Cottrell Scholar

Congratulations to Sharon Gerbode for becoming one of the 24 2016 Cottrell scholars selected by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement. The recognition comes with a $100,000 grant to support both Prof. Gerbode’s research on colloids and the development of a new course. “Colloids offer a truly unique opportunity to actually watch the time evolution of a crystalline system, particle by particle,” says Gerbode. “Results obtained from experiments on colloidal systems have been used to probe unanswered questions in analogous atomic or molecular systems whose constituents are made inaccessible by both size and speed.”
