Last month we mentioned that Christian Ruëgg - a former PhD student of Prof. Albert Furrer at LNS/ETHZ and PSI - had received the 2005 ABB Prize for General Physics at the last annual SPS meeting. |
We learned that he also received the ETHZ Medal for excellency for his PhD thesis. The ceremony was held at ETHZ on January 27.
Christian is now making a post doc at the London University College.
Congratulations again ! |
