Distinguished Research Lectureship
baby直播app the Competition
The Distinguished Research Lectureship is among the highest honors bestowed by the baby直播app upon a baby直播app member at CU Boulder. Each year, the Research & Innovation Office requests nominations from baby直播app for this award, and a baby直播app review panel recommends one or more baby直播app members as recipients.
The lectureship honors a tenured baby直播app member, Research Professor (Associate or full) or Adjoint Professor who has been with CU Boulder for at least five years and is widely recognized for a distinguished body of academic or creative achievement and prominence, as well as contributions to the educational and service missions of CU Boulder. Each recipient typically presents a lecture in the fall or spring following selection and receives a $2,000 honorarium.
Christy McCain of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and the CU Museum of Natural History and Jamie Nagle of Physics have been recognized with 2024-25 Distinguished Research Lectureships. Learn more.
Professor Nagle's lecture will take place on February 6, 2025. Further details to come.
