“Lindsay has been a top researcher in our atmospheric processes lab for four years and is quite deserving of this national honor,” said Cocker, adding that he feels a special kinship with Yee because her career to date, closely parallels his – they won many of the same awards – including the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship – and he also chose to go to Caltech for graduate studies.

Yee served as president of the Riverside Student Section of the Society of Women Engineers in 2006-07. She also won a Ford Motor Co. Undergraduate Scholarship and first place in the Jim Guthrie Undergraduate Research Competition in 2007.
