The Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics, a nationally-supported research centre hosted by the University of Toronto, recognized one of its young researchers, Matthew Browning, for outstanding research done during his time at CITA.

Browning was awarded the Jeffrey L. Bishop Fellowship, granted every two years. It is an award for excellence in research in astrophysical dynamics in particular, and is named after one of CITA's first postdoctoral fellows, who died in an automobile accident shortly after leaving the Institute. The Fellowship is partly funded by a gift from his Mother, Mrs. Muriel Simmons, and matched by CITA.

About the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics. The Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA) is a world-class, nationally supported, research centre for studies in theoretical astrophysics and related subjects hosted by the University of Toronto. The primary missions of CITA are to foster interaction within the Canadian theoretical astrophysics community and to serve as an international centre of excellence for theoretical studies in astrophysics. CITA receives research support from a collaborative special project grant from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), as well as the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR). More information about CITA and the work of its researchers is available at http://www.cita.utoronto.ca/.
