17 Faculty Elected 2023 Fellows Of The American Association For The Advancement Of Science
Texas A&M University announces the election of 17 faculty members as 2023 fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). AAAS is the world’s largest multidisciplinary scientific society and publisher of the Science journals. One of the most distinguished honors within the scientific community, fellows of the AAAS are a cadre of global scientists, engineers and innovators who have been recognized for their academic and administrative achievements geared toward communicating science to the public.
“As we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the AAAS Fellows Program, AAAS is proud to recognize the newly elected individuals. This year’s class embodies scientific excellence, fosters trust in science throughout the communities they serve, and leads the next generation of scientists while advancing scientific achievements,” said Dr. Sudip S. Parikh, AAAS chief executive officer and executive publisher of the Science family of journals.
Since 1874, fellowship of the AAAS has been acknowledged with a certificate and commemorative gold and blue rosette pin representing science and engineering, respectively. The 2023 class of fellows will be featured in the “AAAS News & Notes” section of the April 2024 edition of Science. In September, the newly elected fellows from Texas A&M will join the full cohort at the annual Fellows Forum and the AAAS Gala celebrating the 150th anniversary of the AAAS Fellows program in Washington, D.C.
