Distinguished University Professor James M. Anderson Named to National Academy of Engineering

Via Case School of Engineering | February 8, 2013

Today James M. Anderson adds another honor to an already impressive list: membership in the National Academy of Engineering (NAE).

The recognition comes a decade after Anderson won election to the Institute of Medicine, five years after he won election to the Association of American Physicians, and a year after he won election to the American Academy for the Advancement of Science. It also comes 19 days after he won the 2013 Acta Biomaterialia Gold Medal from the American Physical Society.

“Jim’s entire career embodies interdisciplinary excellence,” President Barbara R. Snyder said. “His willingness to span boundaries and engage broadly with collaborators has contributed to significant breakthroughs for patients. He deserves every bit of acclaim he has received—and more.”

Via CWRU The Daily | August 27, 2012

Often, collaboration helps turn a great idea into a life-changing invention, or a minor project into a major breakthrough. But for James M. Anderson, collaboration is what’s defined his career.

As a professor of pathology, macromolecular science and biomedical engineering, Anderson’s 44 years at Case Western Reserve have included research, teaching and service that bridges medicine and engineering. In addition, he has been instrumental in developing cooperative efforts between the School of Medicine and Case School of Engineering—as well as among other universities.

These shared endeavors have earned him many awards and honors—including, most recently, Distinguished University Professor, a title that will be conferred upon him during fall convocation on Wednesday, Aug. 29, at 4:30 p.m. in Severance Hall.
