Elaine Li is the Jack S. Josey Welch Foundation Chair in Science and the director of the new Texas Quantum Institute. An experimentalist, Li’s research focuses on studies of the quantum dynamics of electrons. To meet the technical and societal challenges of the new millennium, scientists must learn how to control material properties at the level of electrons. In this regard, Li studies ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopy in condensed matter and quantum dynamics and control in nanostructures, as well as spintronics, light scattering and optical wave mixing techniques, semiconductor quantum dots, mesoscopic quantum systems, laser physics, optoelectronic devices, ultrafast lasers, quantum interference effects in semiconductors, femtosecond comb technology, multidimensional spectroscopy and quantum information science. She is the winner of numerous awards, including the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers, a Sloan Research Fellowship, an NSF CAREER Award and TAMEST’s Peter O’Donnell Award. She is a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, OPTICA (formerly Optical Society of America) and the American Physics Society.

Donna Strickland
Physicist and Nobel Laureate
University of Waterloo
Donna Strickland is a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Waterloo and is one of the recipients of the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics for developing chirped pulse amplification with Gérard Mourou, her Ph.D. supervisor at the time. They published this research in 1985 when Strickland was a Ph.D. student at the University of Rochester in New York. Together they paved the way toward the most intense laser pulses ever created. The research has several applications today in industry and medicine — including the cutting of a patient’s cornea in laser eye surgery and the machining of small glass parts for use in cell phones. Strickland was a research associate at the National Research Council Canada, a physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and a member of the technical staff at Princeton University. In 1997, she joined the University of Waterloo, where her ultrafast laser group develops high-intensity laser systems for nonlinear optics investigations. She is a recipient of a Sloan Research Fellowship, a Premier’s Research Excellence Award and a Cottrell Scholar Award. She served as the president of the Optical Society (OSA) in 2013 and is a fellow of OSA, the Royal Society of Canada and SPIE (International Society for Optics and Photonics). Strickland is an honorary fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering as well as the Institute of Physics. She received the Golden Plate Award from the Academy of Achievement and holds numerous honorary doctorates.

Ed Viesturs
Mountaineer, Author & Public Speaker
Dr. Ed Viesturs is widely regarded as this country’s foremost high-altitude mountaineer. He is familiar to many from the 1996 IMAX Everest Expedition documentary. In 2002, he was awarded the historic Lowell Thomas Award by the Explorer’s Club for outstanding achievement in the field of mountaineering. He has also received the American Alpine Club Sowles Awards for his participation in two rescues on K-2 and National Geographic’s Adventurer of the Year recognition.
After earning his doctorate in Veterinary Medicine in 1987 while also serving as a guide on Mount Ranier, Dr. Viesturs decided to embrace his passion for climbing the highest peaks of the world full-time. Viesturs has successfully reached the summits of all of the world’s fourteen 8000-meter peaks without supplemental oxygen, an 18-year project he christened Endeavor 8000. He is one of only a handful of climbers in history (and the only American) to accomplish this. His books about his experiences include “No Shortcuts to the Top: Climbing the World's 14 Highest Peaks,” “K2: Life and Death on the World's Most Dangerous Mountain” and “The Mountain: My Time on Everest.”
