Susana Marcos recognized at Spain鈥檚 Smart Woman Forum & Awards

, the David R. Williams Director of the Center for Visual Science and the Nicholas George Professor of聽聽and of Ophthalmology, was recognized with an award for best investigator by Spain鈥檚 Federation of Health Innovation Industry. She was recognized at the聽聽in Madrid on July 19.

Marcos is an internationally recognized expert in the optics of the eye and the interactions of light with the retina. Her lab aims to understand the interplay of structural, biomechanical, and optical properties of the eye, their impact on retinal image quality, and the limits they impose to visual function and perception.

Christopher Marshall receives Early Career Research award from Department of Energy

, an assistant professor in the , has been named a recipient of an from the US Department of Energy to continue his work studying tiny subatomic particles called neutrinos. The award is designed to bolster the nation鈥檚 scientific workforce by providing support to exceptional researchers during the crucial early career years, when many scientists do their most formative work. Marshall is among 93 scientists to receive the award this year. For university faculty members, the awards pay $175,000 a year for five years.

Neutrinos are often referred to as 鈥済host particles.鈥� Although neutrinos are one of the most abundant particles in our universe, they are notoriously difficult to study because they don鈥檛 have an electrical charge and have nearly no mass. There are three different types鈥攐r 鈥渇lavors鈥濃�攐f neutrinos, which exhibit a property called oscillation, where they can change from one type to another as they travel.

Marshall works on two different experiments that measure neutrino oscillations: , which has already started collecting data and is searching for a fourth type of neutrino, and the , which will start collecting data in 2028 and will search for a difference in neutrino and antineutrino oscillation that could explain why the universe is made of matter instead of antimatter. Marshall aims to develop a common solution shared between neutrino experiments to understand how neutrinos interact with the atomic nuclei that make up the detectors.

Marshall first came to the 人妻少妇专区 in 2010 as a graduate student, earning his PhD in 2016. He spent the next four years as a Chamberlain Fellow in the physics division at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California before returning to Rochester as an assistant professor in 2020.
