The Award will be presented at a general conclave of the Society in the course of the Annual Meeting in Boston. MRS Past President Harry J. Leamy, Bell Laboratories, Chairman of the Awards Committee, said, "The Von Hippel Award recognizes those qualities most prized by materials scientistsHirilliance and originality of intellect combined with vision that transcends conventional scientific disciplines.
