Harper Avery Award
Due to his work regarding an epilepsy neurostimulator, Robert received a nomination for the 2014 Harper Avery Award.

At the party before the award ceremony, Robert met Cristina Yang. After introducing himself, he told her he was a huge fan and that he read all her work on her conduit research. He found it fascinating. They were joined by another doctor who was also fond of Cristina's work. Robert and the doctor kept asking questions to a distracted Cristina. Robert was primarly fascinated that she was nominated for a Harper Avery Award so early in her career, as she was still only a fellow. Their conversation was interrupted by the buzzer that informed them that they could all go to their table in the room where the award would be handed out.

Unfortunately, Robert did not win the Award.
