CMB graduates return to become CMB faculty trainers

A number of CMB graduates from various decades are now faculty members at UW-Madison and participate as faculty trainers in the CMB Program.  These faculty trainers all have a very unique perspective on how the CMB Program has changed and grown since they were graduate students.  We appreciate all of their contributions to the CMB Program from back in their graduate student years and now as faculty and alumni!
