Jose Roque, a @PrincetonChem assistant professor, has been awarded a 2026 Packard Fellowship for Science and Engineering by the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. Roque is one of 20 early-career scientists, mathematicians and engineers in this year’s cohort for the prestigious national award. Other 2026 fellows affiliated with Princeton include Yonglong Xie *19 and Henri Drake who was a NOAA Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellow at Princeton and NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory from 2021 to 2023 and a research specialist in physical oceanography at the University from 2015 to 2016. Packard Fellowships are among the nation's largest nongovernmental fellowships, designed to allow maximum flexibility in the use of funds. The fellowships encourage "blue-sky thinking" that could one day foster discoveries to improve people’s lives and generate advancements through science.

Professor Luc Deike has won an Experimental Physics Investigators Initiative award from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation: bit.ly/4s4cbxe The award supports tenured, mid-career faculty doing experimental work in physics. Deike is one of 21 U.S. researchers in this year’s cohort. Deike’s research focuses on fundamental fluid dynamics, including surface waves, drops and bubbles in turbulence, motivated by their importance in ocean-atmosphere interaction, oxygen and carbon fluxes in the ocean, marine aerosol emissions and atmospheric cloud processes.

The average solar cell could produce one percent more power by adding zinc bromide and methyl ammonium chloride during the fabrication of perovskites, according to researchers at Princeton and other institutions. Read more: materials.princeton.edu/news…

Just a personal addendum: Mike was my undergraduate thesis advisor at Princeton. This was a transformative experience. One of the crucial turning points in my life. So, I count myself as a Woodford student (part of the Woodford army, some might say :) ). Then I was fortunate enough to have Mike as a colleague at Columbia for 10 years. On a number of occasions, conversations with Mike were pivotal for my research (e.g., when Emi and I were working on our fiscal stimulus paper). But for me, the Woodford experience started in Econ 420 at Princeton in 1999. This was a small undergraduate class with maybe a dozen students. But among those were four people that would end up tenured at top 10 econ departments. It was a pretty special class! To do good research, one needs to have a few "superpowers" up one's sleeve: things one understands really well and are applicable to lots of issues that come up in one's research. One of the most important "superpowers" that I have as a scholar (to the extent that I have any) is the theoretical ideas about monetary economics that Mike taught me and I studied in his book. They are a constant source of new insight which permeate my research. (For me, they have been especially powerful when mixed with empirical ideas from other fields). I am simply over the moon that Mike has won the Nobel Prize.

How wonderful! A Nobel prize for research that has transformed the practice of macro policy in the world. Congratulations to Bob Hall and Mike Woodford. My Ph.D. class at Princeton got the first preview of Mike's 2003 Nobel winning textbook when Mike taught us the unpublished chapters back in 1996. What a privilege!

Congrats Bob and Mike!

Congratulations to Michael Woodford, recipient of the 2026 #NobelPrize in economics. Woodford was a member of the Princeton faculty from 1995 to 2004, as a professor of economics and the Harold H. Helm '20 Professor of Economics and Banking.

The University will present its top awards for @princetonalumni to @francesarnold '79, 2018 Nobel laureate and engineering professor at @Caltech, and Mary Brunkow *91, 2025 Nobel laureate and distinguished investigator at the @isbsci in Seattle. Arnold, who graduated from Princeton with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical and aerospace engineering, will receive the Woodrow Wilson Award. Brunkow, who earned a Ph.D. in molecular biology, will receive the James Madison Medal. These awards will be presented on Feb. 20, 2027 at Alumni Day: bit.ly/4yO9rXx
