DAVID ADAMS was elected as a Fellow of AVS: Science &

I am grateful to have worked with different, multi-disciplinary LDRD teams and value our many discoveries and contributions. These collaborative LDRD projects are a key reason that I have remained at Sandia for more than 25 years. I strongly encourage early-career staff to engage in LDRD studies, if interested. LDRD programs span a wide variety of topics, and one can potentially contribute to multiple investment areas over the course of a career while building your own technical expertise. There are also opportunities to collaborate with U.S. universities, via the Sandia University Partnerships Program, which greatly enhance the experience. It is a wonderful program!”
