Pan credits UD Statistics Program for preparing him for DuPont career

Winning the prestigious Bolton/Carothers Innovative Science Award is an honor for any DuPont employee, especially so when it is only your fourth year on the job. Such is the case for Zaiqi Pan, who received a master’s degree from the University of Delaware Statistics Program in January 2008.

An employee of Pioneer Hi-Bred, a DuPont business, Pan received the award with his fellow team members -- Laura Higgins, Lindsey Flexner and Natalie Hubbard -- in January 2012 for their work developing and implementing an innovative method to deploy refuge for the Pioneer genetically modified corn plant.
