"I've always admired AAAS and everything that it does to promote science, science education, and science policy," said Ofria, adding he's long been a reader of the organization's publications, including its flagship journal and magazine, Science. "I learned a lot about how to do good science by reading the journal over the years and eventually publishing in it myself. AAAS has recognized so many amazing scientists as fellows over the years, and I am thrilled to join those ranks."
