The NSF's Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity. It offers the NSF's most prestigious awards in support of early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization. Professor Thomson, a condensed matter theorist, joined the UC Davis faculty in 2021. Although faculty can apply for the CAREER award up to three times, she was successful at her first attempt with her proposal, "CAREER: Unconventional superconductivity and disordered criticality in two dimensions."
