UW Celebrates Research and Innovation Achievements

In late January the University of Wyoming awarded and honored the research and innovation of several members of its faculty in celebration of the impact, relevance and importance of their respective work. UW’s annual Celebration of Excellence in Research and Innovation awards event, which was held at the Marian H. Rochelle Gateway Center, featured distinguished researcher, innovator and research service awards to three faculty members. An award also featured a standout UW school for demonstrating exemplary research culture. The event designated several faculty members as honorees for research and innovation excellence, and recognized faculty members from select UW schools and colleges for their respective contributions to research excellence.

 

“We are incredibly fortunate and proud to have such prodigiously productive and impactful researchers here at the University of Wyoming,” President Ed Seidel said. “The work that the researchers being recognized today perform has massive consequences for our university, state and the world. These are just a few of the many UW faculty similarly making positive and profound impacts with the research they conduct. Congratulations to those we recognize today, along with our gratitude and thanks to all researchers here at UW.”
