Prof. Philippe Collon has been named a 2012-13 Kaneb Faculty Fellow. Each year, the Kaneb Center names faculty fellows in recognition of their records of teaching excellence. Kaneb Faculty Fellows share their teaching abilities and experiences through workshops, discussion groups, research, and individual consultation.

Prof. Collon joined the Department of Physics in 2003. His research in the Nuclear Science Laboratory (NSL) centers around the use of Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) to study questions related to nuclear astrophysics and the nucleosynthesis of elements in stars. Prof. Collon is also active in the use of AMS for the analysis of both art and archaeology and tracers in environmental sciences.

In 2010, he was the recipient of the Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C. Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching.
