Brad Ramshaw, associate professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences and researcher in LASSP, has been named to the 2025 class of Brown Investigators. Each investigator, recognized for curiosity-driven research in chemistry or physics, will receive up to $2 million over five years.

Paul Malinowski, Klarman Fellow in physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, received the 2025 Martin and Beate Block Winter Award from the Aspen Center for Physics, awarded in recognition of outstanding achievements by a promising young physicist. 

Electrons – the carriers of electricity – are inherently quantum mechanical, exhibiting remarkable behaviors like tunneling through barriers, occupying multiple locations at the same time, and even becoming entangled over distances.
