Charlie-Ray Mann has been officially accepted as a UK representative for the 69th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting (#LINO19) that will take place 30 June–5 July 2019.
LINO19 will be dedicated to physics. Until now, 41 Nobel Laureates have confirmed their participation. They will meet 580 young scientists from 88 countries for an inspiring dialogue.
Charlie is a 4th year theoretical physics PhD student in the CDT in Metamaterials. He graduated from the University of Exeter in 2015 with a 1st class degree in Physics, during which he was awarded two scholarships for academic excellence and received the Bertie Black Prize for the most outstanding academic performance in the College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences.
His application was strongly supported by the Royal Society and by a combined effort of his supervisors (Dr. Eros Mariani & Prof. Bill Barnes), some of their colleagues in Physics, as well as our Head of Discipline, Prof Tim Harries, and the University’s senior management.
The participation to the Lindau meeting is a highly selective process as only one student can be nominated every year by an academic institution and only very few worldwide are finally selected by the Lindau committee.
We would like to congratulate Charlie for yet another prestigious achievement and are keen to learn about his experiences at this unique opportunity.
