The American Academy of Sciences and Letters is a learned society that recognizes outstanding scholarly achievement across academic disciplines and in the learned professions.
The Academy was founded in 2023. Its founding board included:
· Donald Landry (president of the Academy), Chair Emeritus of the Department of Medicine at Columbia University and past Physician-in-Chief at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center
· W.B. Allen, Emeritus Professor of Political Philosophy and Dean of the James Madison College at Michigan State University
· Brandice Canes-Wrone, Professor of Political Science and Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University
· Margaret Chisolm, Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
· Carlos Eire, T. L. Riggs Professor of History and Religious Studies at Yale University
· Mary Ann Glendon, Learned Hand Professor of Law Emerita at Harvard University
· Barry Honig, Professor of Systems Biology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Medical Science in Medicine and Faculty, Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute at Columbia University
· Sergiu Klainerman, Higgins Professor of Mathematics at Princeton University
· Sanjeev Kulkarni, William R. Kenan, Jr., Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and Operations Research and Financial Engineering
· Santiago Schnell, William K. Warren Foundation Dean of the College of Science at the University of Notre Dame
Like most learned societies, the Academy elects distinguished scholars as members. Those inducted as members of the Academy can then nominate other scholars for membership.
Besides electing regular members, the Academy awards prizes at its annual investiture ceremony at the Library of Congress. These include the Barry Prize for Distinguished Intellectual Achievement, which recognizes dedication to excellence in the arts, sciences and learned professions. In 2023, the Academy also recognized Sir Salman Rushdie with the Robert J. Zimmer Medal for Intellectual Freedom.
A 501(c)(3), the Academy is incorporated in the state of Delaware.
