Hiyam Hamaed (University of Windsor) has been awarded the Governor General's Gold Medal as the top graduate student in her cohort. Hiyam did her Ph.D. in solid-state NMR under the supervision of Robert Schurko. While working on her Ph.D. project "Solid-state NMR spectroscopy of unreceptive nuclei in inorganic and organic systems" Hiyam was a frequent user of the 900 NMR Facility in Ottawa. Congratulations with the Gold Medal, Hiyam!
