Congrats Yuzhe for receiving the Young Faculty Award (YFA) from DARPA 2023 . Each year only about 30 rising stars in junior research positions receive this prestigious award. The YFA program provides funding, mentoring, and industry and DoD contacts to awardees early in their careers so they may develop their research ideas in the context of national security needs. Yuzhe will receive $500K in funding support from the YFA program for his research on thermal emission.
