This is outstanding Chancellor @uwchancellor ! I'm thrilled to see my good colleague and friend @AprilleEricsson in this inaugural DOD leadership role. Congratulations!
Great to meet with @NSF Dir. Panchanathan, and with Aprille Ericsson, the (first ever) @DeptofDefense Assistant Secretary of Defense for Science and Technology while in DC last week. Thank you both for taking the time to discuss the importance of this essential research funding.
