Lucasian Professorship Goes to Michael Green
h/t LubosString theorist Michael Green has been announced as the next Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University. Green, 63, will succeed Stephen Hawking who held the chair from 1980 before retiring last month at the age of 67 and taking up a distinguished research chair at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada. He's got five years until he, too, must relinquish the post. Good choice! Posted by: KBK 2009-10-21 |
