Nancy Grace Roman Technology Fellowship

May, 2013
Recipient: Michael W McElwain (667)
Mike was first selected last year, along with 2 other scientists, to complete a phase-A study for his proposed instrument development. NASA HQ evaluated the proposals this Spring, and has selected Mike to receive funding for the next 4 years to build PISCES, an integral field spectrograph (IFS) to be deployed at the High Contrast Imaging Testbed (HCIT) at JPL. This will lay the ground-work for an eventual IFS in space to characterize exoplanetary atmospheres.
