The National Academy of Sciences announced on Tuesday the election of 72 new members and 18 foreign associates in recognition of their distinguished and continuing achievements in original research. Election to the academy is considered to be one of the highest honors that can be accorded a U.S. scientist or engineer. Those elected bring the total number of active members to 2,097.
Of those elected, the following are chemists or work in areas related to the chemical sciences: Alexis T. Bell of the University of California, Berkeley; Vann Bennett of both Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) and Duke University Medical Center; Mina J. Bissell of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory; Michael D. Cahalan of UC Irvine; Roger D. Cone of Vanderbilt University School of Medicine; Nancy L.

Mirkin of Northwestern University; Kevin Struhl of Harvard Medical School; Attila Szabo of the National Institutes of Health; and Richard P. Van Duyne of Northwestern University.
Among the newly elected are five who serve as editors or advisers to the ACS Publications Division.
