Wu Tsai Neuro affiliate James Gross named AAAS Fellow
Nine researchers from Stanford University and the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have been named Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). AAAS describes their Fellows as “a distinguished cadre of scientists, engineers and innovators who have been recognized for their achievements across disciplines ranging from research, teaching and technology, to administration in academia, industry and government, to excellence in communicating and interpreting science to the public.”
This year, AAAS named 564 new fellows. Among the nine fellows elected from Stanford and SLAC was Wu Tsai Neuro affiliate James Gross, who was recognized "for distinguished contributions to the study of emotion, and, in particular, for establishing the study of emotion regulation in individual, interpersonal and intergroup contexts."
Gross is the Ernest R. Hilgard Professor of Psychology and director of the Stanford Psychophysiology Laboratory. He is also a member of Stanford Bio-X, the Cardiovascular Institute, the Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI) and the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute.
