In announcing this year’s named chairs, Provost Sally Kornbluth remarked: “Our Distinguished Professorships are among the highest honors for faculty. Our honorees are following in a long tradition stretching back to Duke’s earliest days. Indeed, you are the successors of faculty leaders who helped define our commitment to ethical scholarship, leadership, and public service.” Added President Vincent Price: “Our honorees are recognized as international leaders in a diverse range of fields. The research that you’re conducting has already had a significant impact on our society, helping to improve lives and shaping our understanding of the world.”
