MEET THE ISCB FELLOWS CLASS OF 2012

The ISCB Fellows program honors members that have distinguished themselves through outstanding contributions to the fields of computational biology and bioinformatics. The process established for electing Fellows includes a call for nominations to our member community. After the 2012 nominations deadline, the Fellows Selection Committee, which includes all Fellows together with the current ISCB Board of Directors, elected six new Fellows. During the 2009 inaugural year of the program, ISCB committed to also automatically conferring Fellows status on all winners of the ISCB Accomplishment by a Senior Scientist Award. Therefore, seven new Fellows now join their 17 colleagues from previous years.

The outcome of this year's election is presented with tremendous pride. Each of these very accomplished researchers has made exceptional contributions to ISCB's mission to advance the scientific understanding of living systems through computation. Please join us in congratulating our new ISCB Fellows Class of 2012.
