Dr. Gorjian has been with the program continuously since the very first Spitzer Space Telescope Research Program for Teachers and Students.
We are celebrating 20 YEARS(!) of high school teachers doing astronomy research at IPAC. (Wow!)
Our very own Varoujan Gorjian is being honored at his high school alma mater, and NITARP is listed in the citation! Go Varoujan!
Stephen Pompea, Varoujan Gorjian, and Peter Pitman attended the 2010 Teacher Research Experience Conference in Washington DC. This conference was organized for a nation-wide cross-discipline discussion of teacher research. They presented 2 posters.
