“The 2021 class of Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) includes seven Ohio State University investigators from the colleges of Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.
The AAAS Fellowship, recognizing scientifically or socially distinguished efforts to advance science or its applications, is one of the most prestigious honors a U.S. scientist can receive. Fellows are elected by their academic peers.

Du Bois, anthropologist Margaret Mead and astronaut Ellen Ochoa,” Ohio State President Kristina M. Johnson said. “As a scientist myself, I am honored on behalf of every member of the Ohio State community who has been selected to join this distinguished group of scientists, researchers, engineers and innovators. The range of achievements and contributions of our newest AAAS Fellows exemplifies how vital innovation and discovery are to enriching lives and building a better world.”
