Professional Society Fellows

The "Fellow" distinction is bestowed by professional organizations upon individuals who are recognized as leaders in their field of research.  Only those who have made extraordinary and outstanding contributions to a scientific or technical body of knowledge -- over a lengthy career -- receive this honor.  In fact, on average less than 1% of a society's membership go on to become Fellows, as each professional organization has its own rigorous vetting and selection process.  Below is a list of JPL employees who are leaders in their fields and have been named as "Fellows" by professional organizations.  

 

Several JPL employees have also been named as "Members" to the National Academies.  Information on those prestigious honors can be found here.
