Rodolphe Boudot receives the 2020 EFTF Young Scientist Award

The IEEE EFTF-IFCS 2021 is a joint conference of the European Frequency and Time Forum and the IEEE International Frequency Control Symposium. The 2021 joint conference, originally planned for Paris in April, has been converted to a virtual conference from 7th to 17th July, 2021

During this event, Rodolphe Boudot received the 2020 EFTF Young Scientist Award For his outstanding contributions to the development of high-performance compact and miniature CPT atomic clocks.

The EFTF Young Scientist Award is conferred in recognition of a personal contribution that demonstrated a high degree of initiative and creativity and led to already established or easily foreseeable outstanding advances in the field of time and frequency metrology. The award honours a person under the age of 40 at the date of the opening session of the EFTF conference
