Seven University of Arizona scientists have been named as fellows by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, joining 449 others nationwide recognized this year for their scientific achievements.

The association is the world's largest science organization, with more than 138,000 members nationwide. Fewer than 8 percent receive the title of fellow, an honor that dates to 1874.

The UA's newest fellows are:

● Ian Pepper, professor of soil, water and environmental science and director of the UA's environmental research lab.

● Howard Ochman, professor of biochemistry, and molecular and cellular biology.

● Hans VanEtten, professor of plant pathology.

● M. Bonner Denton, professor of chemistry.

● Hsinchun Chen, professor of management information systems.

● Aden Baker Meinel, professor emeritus of optical sciences.

● George Timothy Bowden, professor of cell biology and anatomy, and radiation oncology.

Each fellow will each receive a certificate and a gold rosette pin at the group's annual meeting in February in San Francisco.The American Association for the Advancement of Science publishes Science, the highest-circulating peer-reviewed general-science journal in the world, with an estimated readership of 1 million.
