Mission

1) Stanford Physics Fellowships with international and interdisciplinary collaborations. We coordinated with the Stanford Physics department to establish a Shoucheng Zhang Fellowship for select Stanford graduate students pursuing research in material science and condensed matter physics. This collaboration started in 2019, shortly after Professor Zhangs passing. This year, 2022-2023, the program selected another four outstanding Fellows to join the Stanford Shoucheng Zhang Fellowship at Stanford. The foundation also hosted events for Stanford faculty and students to discuss new discoveries in science and further collaborations in research. Attached below are photos from a gathering between the new Fellows and Stanford faculty.
