Exceptional scientists elected as Fellows of the Royal Society
Congratulations to Robinson Fellow Professor Anuj Dawar FRS, (Professor of Logic and Algorithms, Department of Computer Science and Technology, Cambridge University) who has been elected to the Fellowship of the Royal Society.
On receiving the Fellowship, Anuj said "I am honoured to be elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. I am still stunned to find myself in such distinguished company. It feels wonderful to have my many years of work recognized in this way. This wouldn't have been possible without the many colleagues and collaborators I have had the privilege to work with, especially the brilliant research students and postdocs who have been part of my research group. And I am very grateful to Robinson College for all the support I have had".
Sir Paul Nurse, President of the Royal Society, said:
“I am delighted to welcome this newest group of exceptional scientists to the Fellowship of the Royal Society.
“Their contributions reflect the highest standards of scientific endeavour. Whether advancing our understanding of vaccines or exploring the transformative potential of mathematics and computation, their work exemplifies the enduring value of curiosity, creativity and rigorous inquiry.
“Our Fellowship is strengthened not only by individual distinction, but by the diversity of perspectives and experiences its members bring. This incoming cohort highlights the truly international character of contemporary science and underscores the vital role that plays in achieving breakthroughs that benefit us all.”
