Last year Martin Bojowald was a postdoc at the Albert Einstein Institute (AEI-Golm)

Now he has a faculty appointment at Penn State and this semester (Spring 2006) he will be teaching an advanced course in Gen Rel

congratulations to Penn State physics department, and Martin.

I guess the word is "tenure track":smile:

great.

Martin is world class. In loop quantum cosmology----and I think one can say QC in general---he is the initiator of the most active line of research. Having him there is a way for Penn State to stay on top.

I hope that he and Ashtekar can build a really strong department in QC in the years to come.
