Six NIH Scientists Among Newly Elected AAAS Fellows

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) elected 502 scientists, engineers and innovators from around the world and across all disciplines to its 2023 class of fellows. Six NIHers are among the electees: Dr. Stephen Chanock, Dr. Julie Segre, Dr. Gisela Storz, Dr. Erin Lavik, Dr. Daniel Salo Reich, and Dr. Jürgen Wess.

AAAS is the world’s largest general scientific society and publisher of the Science family of journals. Newly elected fellows are recognized for scientific and socially notable achievements spanning their careers. Election is one of the most distinguished honors in the scientific community.

AAAS fellows have been recognized for their achievements across disciplines —from research, teaching and technology, to administration in academia, industry and government, to excellence in communicating and interpreting science to the public. 

AAAS first launched this lifetime recognition in 1874. Individuals are elected annually by the AAAS council. New fellows are recognized at a ceremonial forum during the AAAS annual meeting, where they are presented with a certificate and blue and gold rosette.
