Pioneering biochemists Natalie Ahn and Karolin Luger have been inducted into the National Academy of Sciences, an honor that recognizes "distinguished and continuing achievements in original research." Membership in the prestigious organization is widely considered to be one of the highest honors that a scientist can receive.

The National Academy of Inventors (NAI) named two ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· faculty members to its class of fellows for 2017. Distinguished Professor Marvin Caruthers of ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Ʒ’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry was honored for his pioneering contributions to the chemical synthesis of DNA and RNA, making it possible to decode and encode genes and genomes.

Ahn, a professor of distinction in the department of chemistry and biochemistry at the University of Colorado Boulder, was elected president of The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology last year and began her term as president-elect in July.

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· philosopher Alison Jaggar and biochemist Karolin Luger are among 228 new members of the academy, which includes some of the world’s most accomplished scholars, scientists, writers, artists, business people and philanthropic leaders, the academy said in a statement.
