In the past 15 years, FXPAL has hosted a large number of interns, many of whom have become (even more) prominent in their fields. We will soon be recruiting a new crop of interns, and I thought it would be interesting to dig around a bit and see what people are up to these days. A few are now employees at FXPAL. What about the others?<\/p>\n


\nThis list includes only those people for whom I easily found a current page with an explicit professional affiliation. There are many others who are flying below my radar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

If you were an intern or visiting scientist here, and do not appear on this list, please let me know where you are now and I will happily update it. If you do not want to appear in this rogues’ gallery, please let me know as well.<\/p>\n

If you would like to be added to future versions of this list, please consider applying for an internship for 2010. A more formal call for interns is forthcoming, but this might be a good time to start thinking about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
