WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. \u2014 Purdue University researchers Mark Lundstrom and Vladimir M. Shalaev have been named members of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences<\/a>, one of the nation\u2019s oldest and most prestigious honorary societies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They join nearly 250 new members in the Class of 2025, recognized for their accomplishments across academia, the arts, industry, policy, research and science. They will be inducted in October in Cambridge, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lundstrom and Shalaev are professors in the Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering<\/a> and members of the National Academy of Engineering. Both have made lasting contributions to their fields and to Purdue\u2019s global research reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSuch extraordinary decades of research excellence from both Mark and Vlad underscore not only our long-term investments in their success, but also their deep investments in Purdue,\u201d said Patrick Wolfe, provost and executive vice president for academic affairs and diversity. \u201cThis honor, which adds to their accolades, is greatly deserved, and I know both Vlad and Mark will use it to further their teaching, training and mentoring of the next generation of outstanding Purdue students and scholars.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are extremely proud of Mark and Vlad,\u201d said Arvind Raman, the John A. Edwardson Dean of the College of Engineering. \u201cTheir election to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences augments the industry respect they have built through excellent teaching and impactful research. They continue to inspire our faculty and students as exemplars of our commitment to being the nation\u2019s most consequential engineering college.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lundstrom<\/a> is Purdue\u2019s chief semiconductor officer and the Don and Carol Scifres Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. A pioneer in microelectronics and nanotechnology, he founded the nanoHUB platform, which provides users with online access to semiconductor simulation tools and open-content educational resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has authored hundreds of research papers and five books, including \u201cFundamentals of Carrier Transport,\u201d a widely cited reference on carrier transport in semiconductors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shalaev<\/a>, the Bob and Anne Burnett Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering, is internationally recognized for his work in quantum photonics, plasmonics and optical metamaterials. His research has shaped advances in telecommunications, imaging, sensing and quantum computing. Shalaev is a pioneer in nanophotonics and metamaterials, known for his foundational theories and experimental designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has received the American Physical Society\u2019s Frank Isakson Prize for Optical Effects in Solids, Optica\u2019s Max Born Award, the Willis E. Lamb Award for Laser Science and Quantum Optics, and the IEEE Photonics Society\u2019s William Streifer Scientific Achievement Award. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
