CHAMPAIGN, Ill. Three University of Illinois professors have been selected to receive 2014 Sloan Research Fellowships from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. P. Brighten Godfrey, Prashant Jain and Shinsei Ryu (shin-say ree-you) are among 126 early career scientists and researchers from 61 colleges and universities chosen for a two-year fellowship. In keeping with its goal of recognizing potential groundbreaking researchers in their respective fields, the Sloan fellowship program awards fellows $50,000 to pursue their choice of research topics and allows them flexibility in applying funds toward their research. Godfrey, a professor of computer science, studies the design and analysis of networked systems. His research group's current projects focus on achieving consistent high performance and low latency in the Internet, verification of network security and correctness, and data center network architecture. Godfrey earned his doctorate in computer science at the University of California, Berkeley, in 2009, and worked at Intel Labs before joining the faculty at Illinois.
