UFFC-S Members Elevated 2018 IEEE Fellows

Each year, following a rigorous evaluation procedure, the IEEE Fellow Committee recommends a select group of recipients for elevation to IEEE Fellow. Less than 0.1% of voting members are selected annually for this member grade elevation.

The IEEE Board of Directors, at its November 2017 meeting, elevated the following UFFC-S members to IEEE Fellow, effective 1 January 2018:

James Friend: For contributions to acoustics, microfluidics and microactuation

David Howe: For contributions to global time synchronization

Kullervo Hynynen: For contributions to image-guided therapeutic focused ultrasound

Sergei Kalinin: For leadership in piezoresponse force microscopy for nanoscale imaging

L. Scott Smith: For contributions to ultrasound transducer technology for medical imaging

Shuji Tanaka: For contributions to micro-electromechanical systems for acoustic wave devices, physical sensors, and power generation
