ISBC has initiated a new recognition program: Fellows of the SocietyFellows will be designated every two years in recognition of outstanding contributions to ISBC and to research in the field of bioluminescence and chemiluminescence.

For this inaugural group, the Fellows were selected based on their longstanding contributions to the Society and their significant impact on the field. We are fortunate to have many distinguished members whose work has helped shape and advance our community, and we felt it was important to begin formally recognizing these contributions. Moving forward, we envision that  1-2 Fellows will be selected every two years.
