Congratulations to computer science professor Alex Snoeren. Alex was awarded a 2009 Sloan Research Fellowship today, Feb 17 2009. You can read the press release from the Sloan Foundation here.

The full list of 2009 Sloan Research Fellows is here.

We have profiled Snoeren's research a couple of times in the last few years. His research took center stage in a story covering the winter 2007 Center for Networked Systems (CNS) Research Review.
