Dear CHAS colleagues,

 

On checking with ACS staff, Patrick Harran is not an ACS Fellow. He has never received an ACS National Award.

 

Thanks,

Diane Schmidt

Subject: [DCHAS-L] ACS fellows and safety

I suspect people on this list know the answers to these questions:

 

With respect to the AAAS fellow discussion, I know that ACS and its divisions also elect fellows.

 

When ACS or one of its divisions nominate a fellow, would the nominee's safety record be considered? Is safety a criteria for election as an ACS fellow? If not, I hope that it will be in the future.

 

For comparison, When ACS or one of its divisions nominate a fellow, would a nominee found to partake in scientific misconduct be considered? For example, would falsification of published research data be a criteria for election as an ACS fellow? I would guess it is now a criteria. Isn't safety as important as scientific misconduct?

 

Is Dr. Harran an ACS fellow? Is Dr. Harran a fellow on an ACS Division? If so, when was he elected?

 

Thanks,

 

Pete
