Dr. Raghu Kacker was chosen as a Fellow in recognition of outstanding contributions in enabling the field of combinatorial testing to become a mainstream tool in measurement science and software engineering. In 1997, the Mars Pathfinder began...

“For leadership, and vision to the neutron scattering community as scientist, mentor, instrument developer, and facility steward."

For outstanding leadership and technical contributions to standardization of measurements of light sources and lighting products.

Jun Ye's research topic is Quantum System Scaling and Advantage for Fundamental and Applied Science.

Ron is an expert in absorbed dose metrology based on water calorimetry, critical for the direct realization of the SI unit of dose, the gray (Gy), to which all clinical absorbed dose measurements for radiation beam therapy are traceable.

On organizing a national school on solving magnetic structures with neutron diffraction and new AI data collection and analysis methods.

For service to the neutron scattering community through his leadership in the development of scientific software for small-angle scattering.
