"It is a great honor to receive this scholarship in Boris P. Stoicheff's memory. I am now studying in one of the previous Herzberg labs at the National Research Council of Canada – part of the same group of labs in which Dr. Stoicheff researched while with the Herzberg group. His work on nonlinear optics built much of the foundation for my research today." view the press release
