Congratulations to our co-director, Dr. Bryan Gick, who has been awarded a 2017 Guggenheim Fellowship by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. Fellowships are awarded to scholars, artists and scientists from a range of fields on the basis of “prior achievement and exceptional promise”; we couldn’t agree more that Dr. Gick shows both of these! Full information about the fellowships and the class of 2017 fellows is available here.
