Data Management Plan (DMP)

Rigorous, open science with durable impact is achieved, amongst other mechanisms, through effective data management. This is why we have developed a comprehensive data management plan (DMP). Our DMP is public and available on Papyrus; you can consult it here.

Victoria Quirós Cordero – PhD Thesis Defense

I am extremely proud of Victoria Quirós Cordero who defended an outstanding PhD thesis in Georgia Tech today, in co-supervision with Natalie Stingelin. Victoria has become a world-class materials scientist and ultrafast spectroscopist on equal footing. Keep an eye out for her stellar career as she develops into a key scientific leader. Welcome to the family of Silva Group alumni!

– Carlos
