• Leslie Greengard (NYU)—organizer of the Computational Methods in High Energy Density Plasmas long program (2012) and “Collective Variables in Classical Mechanics,” the second workshop of the fall long program on Understanding Many-Particle Systems with Machine Learning

• Bryna Kra (Northwestern)—member of IPAM’s Board of Trustees from 2012 to 2015

• Roberto Peccei (UCLA)—Dean and Vice Chancellor for Research who provided important support to IPAM during its first ten years

• Vladimir Rokhlin (Yale)—organizer of Mathematics of Knowledge and Search Engines long program (2007)

• Peter Voorhees (Northwestern)—speaker at several IPAM workshops, most recently during the Materials Defects long program (2012)

We extend our congratulations to all of them!
