Newsday Highlights Hofstrand’s Young Investigator’s Program Award

Newsday has featured Andrew Hofstrand, Ph.D., assistant professor of mathematics, in its Winners column for having received the Air Force Research Laboratory/Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFRL/AFOSR) Young Investigator’s Program (YIP) Award. His research focuses on the mathematics that describes the way lasers move inside specially designed materials and how the light interacts with its surroundings. Such light-matter interactions can be highly complex, requiring sophisticated techniques in mathematical modeling.
