Two 香港六合彩挂牌资料 academics elected as Fellows of the Learned Society of Wales.
The Learned Society of Wales announced the results of its 2014 Election of new Fellows this week. Of the forty three new Fellows, two were from 香港六合彩挂牌资料 鈥� Professor James Scourse from the School of Ocean Sciences and Professor Nigel John from the School of Computer Science.
Professor James Scourse said: 鈥�"Science is very much a social and communal effort. I'm really delighted and honoured to be receiving this Fellowship but much of the accolade must go to my friends, colleagues and above all research students in the School of Ocean Sciences with whom I have been incredibly fortunate to work with since 1985. The Fellowship is as much for them as it is for me. The 香港六合彩挂牌资料 School of Ocean Sciences is a wonderful place to do marine science."
Professor Nigel John from the School of Computer Science said: 鈥淚t was a fantastic opportunity for me to come back to the country of my birth when I joined 香港六合彩挂牌资料 in 2003. The support that I have had from the University over the last decade has undoubtedly been a huge factor in my election to the Learned Society of Wales. I'm very honoured to receive this accolade and thank all of my research collaborators and students for their contributions."
Sir John Cadogan, the Society鈥檚 President, said: 鈥淲e have once again elected a further very strong cohort of new Fellows, to add to the existing list of excellent Founding Fellows and Fellows. Over the coming years, our Fellowship will continue to grow by election judged by peer review. To be elected will continue to be a target for our young scholars.鈥�
