Rachel Ward Receives Young Investigator grant

Rachel Ward, assistant professor of mathematics and ICES faculty member, received a $360,000 U.S. Air Force Young Investigator grant. The prestigious U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research program seeks to enhance early career development of outstanding young investigators by supporting scientists who received Ph.D. or equivalent degrees in the last five years. Ward’s 3-year grant will support her work in deriving efficient strategies for acquiring high-dimensional data with known low-dimensional structure, driven by applications to Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Uncertainty Quantification.
