The Brown Institute for Basic Sciences at Caltech announced the 2024 class of Brown Investigators. Eight distinguished mid-career faculty who are working on fundamental challenges in the physical sciences were selected, which included RASEI Fellow Gordana Dukovic. These investigators were highlighted for their potential for long-term practical applications in chemistry and physics. Each investigator will receive up to $2M over the next five years.

The Brown Institute for Basic Sciences at Caltech was established in 2023 through a $400m gift from Caltech alumnus Ross M. Brown. The investigator award were established in 2020 in support of the belief that “scientific discovery is a driving force in the improvement of the human condition”. A total of 13 investigators were recognized in the first three years of the program, and with the Award now being established at Caltech, the plan is for eight investigators to be selected each year.

Brown Investigators from all cohorts are invited to an annual meeting that offers opportunities to share ideas, network, and develop new collaborations and directions. 
Congratulations Gordana!
