« Success Story »

Julien Branlard begins work at Fermilab today as the first John Bardeen Engineering Fellow. A recent graduate of the Illinois Institute of Technology, Julien Branlard is

the first recipient of the John Bardeen Engineering Fellowship.

"Julien will make an outstanding addition to

Fermilab," said Ralph Pasquinelli, Accelerator Division RF Department Head and the inspiration behind the fellowship. "He's an articulate, talented team player who will hit the ground running with his outstanding engineering skills."

Branlard began his studies in France and transferred to the Illinois Institute of Technology in 2000.After graduating with a Ph.D. in electrical engineering last

December, he began looking for a way to continue his work in the United States. Fermilab Today 2005
