Ting Li and Corliss Sio recognized with Dorothy Shoichet Women Faculty in Science Award of Excellence

Two early-career researchers from the Faculty of Arts & Science are recipients of the Dorothy Shoichet Women Faculty in Science Award of Excellence: Ting Li, an assistant professor in the David A. Dunlap department of astronomy and astrophysics; and Corliss Sio, an assistant professor in the department of Earth sciences.

The award was established in 2016 by Molly Shoichet to help early-career female researchers focus on their research.

Li鈥檚 research goal is to better understand the formation of the Milky Way Galaxy and galaxies in the nearby universe.

鈥淚 am profoundly honoured to have been selected as the recipient of the Dorothy Shoichet Award, and I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to my department for nominating me,鈥 says Li, 鈥渆specially as I embark on establishing an optical instrumentation lab in my department and take on the role of chairing a large international collaboration.鈥

Sio鈥檚 research lies at the intersection of isotope geochemistry, experimental petrology and numerical modeling. She was instrumental in winning a major Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) grant for the GEMINAE lab (Geochemistry of Elements and Metal Isotopes in Nature and Experiments).

鈥淚 am incredibly honoured to receive this award and am grateful for Professor Shoichet鈥檚 generosity and my department鈥檚 support,鈥 says Sio. 鈥淭his award could not be better timed, coming while I am in the thick of building a laboratory that will be the first of its kind in Canada.鈥
