Nicholas Metropolis Award for Outstanding Doctoral Thesis Work in Computational Physics

  
Congratulations to Soon Yong Chang of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign for receiving the 2008 Nicholas Metropolis Award for Outstanding Doctoral Thesis Work in Computational Physics. Chang has been credited "For so productively bringing state-of-the-art computational methods, developed in nuclear matter theory, to condensed matter many-body problems, especially ultracold trapped atomic Fermi systems."

The purpose of the award is to recognize doctoral thesis research of outstanding quality and achievement in computational physics and to encourage effective written and oral presentation of research results.

The award is supported by the Journal of Computational Physics.
