Fellows of the International Society for Computational Biology

The first seven fellows of the ISCB were laureates of the ISCB Senior Scientist Award from 2003 to 2009:

  1. Webb Miller[3]
  2. David Haussler[4]
  3. Temple F. Smith[5]
  4. Michael Waterman[6]
  5. Janet Thornton
  6. David J. Lipman
  7. David Sankoff[1]

Since 2009, new fellows have been nominated from the community of ISCB members and voted on annually by a selection committee. New fellows are traditionally inaugurated at the annual Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) conference.[7]
