Laura Starkston has been awarded a Hellman Fellowship for 2020. The purpose of the Hellman Fellows Program is "to support the research of promising assistant professors who show capacity for great distinction in their chosen fields of endeavor." Fellowships are awarded annually to researchers from across the 10 University of California campuses, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Harvard University, Stanford University, and Williams College. Laura, who was selected as a featured awardee in a recent profile honoring all UC Davis Hellman Fellows since 2008, is joined by 9 other UC Davis researchers awarded the fellowship in 2020. Congratulations Laura!
