When GABE ENGLANDER, a fourth-year honors student from Cincinnati, declared his major in economics, he had a rather lofty goal in mind: to become an advisor to the President of the United States. And now?
“I just want to do research that matters,” he said.
Englander indeed has a very promising future in research. In fact, he has been awarded three separate grants, totaling $23,000, for his current research project on decision-making in the face of uncertainty. This work has applications that range from climate change to cancer prevention, two subjects Englander is passionate about.
