"The Packard fellowship will enable me to spend more time exploring new ideas and will support the growth of my group and my students' development as scientists," Ho said.
"My overarching goal is to connect the final stages of massive-star evolution and the formation of compact objects to the observed characteristics of supernovae, transients, and neutron stars and black holes."
The unrestricted fellowship funding "gives fellows the opportunity to experiment and lead cutting-edge research which has led to critical advancements that impact our daily lives," according to the Packard Foundation.
Packard Fellows have gone on to earn recognitions including Nobel Prizes in chemistry and physics, Fields Medals, Alan T. Waterman Awards, and other prestigious honors, showcasing the fellowship's importance.
