WVU Department of Physics and Astronomy Postdoctoral Researcher, Dustin "Dusty" Madison, was named one of 13 Cottrell Fellows across the nation by the Research Corporation for Science Advancement (RCSA). The award, which is also co-sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF), of up to $75,000 for salary, benefits, and research-related expenses includes an expectation for continued pedagogical training for the postdocs in supportive environments.

Dustin's work as a Cottrell Fellow will center around innovative gravitational research, creative curricular development, and the bridge to a career as a teacher-scholar. He will also be teaching an in-depth exploration of how aspects of astronomy, oceanography, and meteorology orient researchers in the natural world.

Dustin is sponsored by Professor Maura McLaughlin (WVU Physics and Astronomy), a 2009 Cottrell Scholar.

Congratulations, Dustin!
