Wehlau, a research associate who earned a PhD at Brandeis University in the United States, began postdoctoral studies in physics at the University of Waterloo in September.
Wehlau says it may be possible some day to test the Theory of Everything through experimental work with particles, but her own research is pure theory.
Wehlau is the third UW scholar to win one of the prestigious prizes, which include a $15,000 grant to enable the scholar to pursue postdoctoral studies at an Ontario university.

 David Hilbert - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
David Hilbert (January 23, 1862, Wehlau, East Prussia – February 14, 1943, Göttingen, Germany) was a German mathematician, recognized as one of the most influential mathematicians of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
A famous example of his world leadership in mathematics is his 1900 presentation of a set of problems that set the course for much of the mathematical research of the 20th century.
Hilbert was born in Wehlau, near Königsberg, East Prussia (now Znamensk, near Kaliningrad, Russia).

 `The Riddle of Creation'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
This book is a comprehensive reworking of Ruth Wehlau's Toronto thesis, and one which more or less succeeds in the difficult task of eliminating the buttresses, the extra walls, and the dim corners of the foundations in favour of a cleanly built modern house with a sufficiency of load-bearing walls.
Wehlau suggests that images of unlocking, separating, mixing, and dismembering are signs of chaos in this very conventional poetry, with its remarkably patterned use and variation of images and collocations.
Similarly, because Wehlau focuses so exclusively on the imagery of Creation, figuring its opposite as anti-Creation, she fails to note that another root metaphor of Old English poetry is that of judgment, of decay and destruction, and the Day of Judgment itself.

ABSTRACT: Globular Cluster M14 is variable rich, with 93 previously identified variable stars, including 5 known Population II Cepheids, 54 RR Lyrae, and 6 red irregular variables (Clement 2001, Wehlau 1994).
Periods have been found for 61 of these 90 variables using photographic photometry derived from plates and techniques outlined in Wehlau and Froelich (1994), where magnitude measurements were obtained via iris photometry and eye estimates, and periods were found using the periodogram method of Wehlau and Leung (1964).
With the advent of the charge coupled device and the Image Subtraction Method (ISM) of Alard and Lupton (1998) and the method begun by Strader et al (2002), M14 is further surveyed for variables, especially around the crowded cluster core, where few variables have previously been located.
