Thankful Cromartie, a NRAO Grote Reber doctoral fellow at the University of Virginia’s Department of Astronomy, has received an Einstein Fellowship under the prestigious NASA Hubble Fellowship Program (NHFP).

Astronomers using ALMA have found striking orbital geometries in protoplanetary disks around binary stars.
