Trower is one of 118 young scientists recognized this year from across the United States and Canada. Awarded annually since 1955, the fellowships honor extraordinary U.S. and Canadian researchers from fields across the sciences, including mathematics and computer science. The awards recognize those whose creativity, innovation and research accomplishments make them stand out as the next generation of leaders.
