The Simons Foundation has announced that Christopher Hoffman is one of the 2016 Simons Fellows in Mathematics. The fellowship program, which began in 2012, is designed to provide awardees with additional sabbatical funding that can "lead to increased creativity and productivity in research." Tatiana Toro was one of the inaugural fellows four years ago, followed by Hart Smith, Gunther Uhlmann, and Sándor Kovács in subsequent years.
