Wendi Heinzelman, the dean of the Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, extends warm congratulations to Donna Strickland '89 (PhD), winner of the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics. Strickland earned her doctorate at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) with Gérard Mourou, an LLE scientist, as her graduate advisor. They were honored for their work developing chirped pulse amplification (CPA), a means of increasing the power of laser pulses. CPA has enabled the modern high-powered precision laser and accompanying research capabilities, along with LASIK eye surgery, smartphone screens, and other aspects of daily life we now take for granted.
