Shull Fellowship Charter

The Clifford G. Shull Fellowship Program is aimed at attracting new scientific talent to ORNL and its neutron science programs, making it possible for these outstanding new scientists to continue on the path to excellence while substantially contributing to ORNL and U.S. Department of Energy missions and goals. The Shull Fellowship is open to fields of science and engineering that further advances in neutron science. Shull fellows are expected to provide valuable stimuli to the research efforts of the Laboratory, make available the most recent development of university science and engineering departments, and represent the Laboratory to its sponsors and collaborators in the scientific community.

First Shull Fellowships Announced

 
Andrew Christianson and Wei-Ren Chen
 

ORNL staff appointments have been presented to Andrew Christianson and Wei-Ren Chen, the first recipients of the ORNL Clifford G. Shull Fellowship. The fellowship was established to attract new scientific talent to ORNL for the development of the Lab's neutron science program.

Andrew received his Ph.D. in physics in 2003 from Colorado State University. He is currently working at HFIR.

Wei-Ren received his Ph.D. in nuclear science and engineering in 2004 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is working at SNS.

ORNL established the Shull Fellowship to recognize Shull's pioneering work in neutron scattering. Co-recipient of the 1994 Nobel Prize in Physics, Shull began his work in 1946 at what is now ORNL. The selection committee looks for candidates with exceptional ability who are capable of developing innovative research programs and who show the promise of outstanding leadership.
