Jeff's Award

I know I don't write much on the family blog (only one other time, I think), but I just want to let everyone know about Jeff's national award. It is the National Science Foundation Early Career Award, that goes to young scientists. It comes with a large grant for Jeff's lab as well as a very prestigious honor. I found out he hadn't let many people outside of his professional area know about it. Although Jeff doesn't get too excited about too many things, I could tell over the phone that he was jumping up and down over this. I am, too, as a proud mama :)
