With graduation approaching, we want to congratulate our graduating class of undergraduate researchers.

  • Ameer Qaquish has been working with Hans Christianson and will return to UNC in the biostatistics graduate program.
  • David Snider studied with Mark Williams and recently defended his honors thesis “Nonlinear geometric optics for pulses with nonlinear phases”.  He will enrolled in the graduate program in statistics at Columbia University in the fall.
  • Xiao-Ming Porter and Yizhou Gu have worked with Jason Metcalfe.  They presented their research at the 2023 UNC Celebration of Undergraduate Research.
    • Xiao-Ming will graduate with honors with a thesis titled “Local energy estimates for damped waves”.  Xiao-Ming will enroll in the graduate program in mathematics at the National University of Singapore.
    • Yizhou will enroll at the University of Michigan in statistics.  She was one of this year’s recipients of the Archibald Henderson Mathematics Medal and received recognition at the 2023 Chancellor’s Awards Ceremony.

We are extremely proud of these students, provide deep congratulations on their graduations, and wish them much luck in their new endeavors.
