NAI SENIOR MEMBERS

Dear NAI Members:

It is our distinct pleasure to announce the election of the Class of 2022 NAI Senior Members! How apropos to be able to share this news with you on National Inventor’s Day!

We are eternally grateful to our Member Institutions, who support some of the most elite inventors on the horizon. It is their culture of creative exploration and discovery that ignites and inspires these rising stars that we recognize today. 

This year’s class also reflects NAI’s dedicated efforts to promote diversity and inclusion in its membership. The Class of 2022 Senior Members will be inducted at the Senior Member Ceremony at the 11th Annual Meeting of the National Academy of Inventors this upcoming June 14-15 in Phoenix, Arizona.

We congratulate this Senior Member class, well on their path of prolific discovery, and welcome them into the NAI Community. I hope you will join us and do the same.

- Paul R. Sanberg FNAI, President of the NAI
