Congratulations to both Danielle Yahne and Derek Doyle on receiving a DOE Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) award! Danielle Rose Yahne received an SCGSR award for her priority research area in BES – Neutron Scattering Research and Instrumentation (Host DOE Laboratory/Facility – Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL)). Derek D Doyle received an SCGSR award for his priority research area in HEP – Theoretical and Computational Research in High Energy Physics (Host DOE Laboratory/Facility – Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL)).

The goal of the Office of Science Graduate Student Research (SCGSR) program is to prepare graduate students for science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM) careers critically important to the DOE Office of Science mission, by providing graduate thesis research opportunities at DOE laboratories.  The SCGSR program provides supplemental awards to outstanding U.S. graduate students (US citizens or lawful permanent residents) to pursue part of their graduate thesis research at a DOE laboratory/facility in areas that address scientific challenges central to the Office of Science mission. The research opportunity is expected to advance the graduate students’ overall doctoral thesis while providing access to the expertise, resources, and capabilities available at the DOE laboratories/facilities.
