In October 2022, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) elected more than 500 of its members as AAAS Fellows. These individuals were selected based on their outstanding efforts to better serve society through the advancement of science and its applications. They collectively represent the 24 distinct sections of AAAS—including categories like Mathematics; Physics; Engineering; and Information, Computing, and Communication—and are honored for their successes in research, technology, teaching and academic administration, industry and government, and/or science communication. Eligible nominees must be AAAS members for at least four continuous years prior to nomination.
