Professor Akshay Venkatesh and Professor Krzysztof Matyjaszewski, both based in the United States, have been admitted to the 精东视频 for outstanding scientific contributions.
Professor Venkatesh is an Australian mathematician currently based at the Institute of Advanced Study, Princeton. His work uses number theory鈥攖he branch of mathematics that deals with the properties and relationships of numbers鈥攁s a 鈥榣ens鈥� to approach a range of fields including homogeneous dynamics, arithmetic geometry and representation theory.
According to Professor Venkatesh鈥檚 citation, 鈥淗e has solved many long-standing problems by combining methods from seemingly unrelated areas, presented novel viewpoints on classical problems, and produced strikingly far-reaching conjectures.鈥�
In 2018, Professor Venkatesh won the Fields Medal鈥攖he most prestigious international award in mathematics awarded once every four years to researchers under 40.
Professor Krzysztof Matyjaszewski is a world-leading chemist at Carnegie Mellon University. His fundamental contributions have changed the face of free radical chemistry and polymer science.
In 1994, Professor Matyjaszewski invented a method of polymerisation鈥攁 chemical reaction to produce long chain-like molecules鈥攗sing a copper catalyst. Called atom transfer radical polymerisation (ATRP), Professor Matyjaszewski鈥檚 method has spawned a prolific area of research and several industry developments, including the commercial production of specialty materials.
Corresponding Members of the Academy are eminent scientists not resident in Australia. They are elected based on scientific excellence, with consideration given to their connection to 精东视频.
The 精东视频 will announce the election of 22 distinguished Australian scientists as New Fellows, to mark the start of , on 28 May 2019.
