National Academy of Engineering
Brain Trust Grows

Think preeminence in science and engineering and the National Academies of Science and Engineering come to mind. The Engineering Academy recently expanded its brain trust by adding 77 new members and 9 foreign associates.

A couple Ohioans were added.

Robert E. Fenton, Professor Emeritus, Department of Electrical Engineering at Ohio State University made the list for pioneering systems research and engineering on the design and operation of automated highway systems.

Yoram Rudy, Professor of Biomedical Engineering, Physiology, Biophysics, and Medicine at Case Western Reserve University was added for his leadership in the engineering sciences of cardiac excitation at the genetic and molecular levels and for introducing new methods in clinical diagnosis and therapy.
