Bamin Khomami, CBE department head and Granger and Beaman Distinguished University Professor, is a newly elected Fellow of the Society of Rheology (SoR).

“The SoR Fellowship status recognizes a history of distinguished scientific achievement, a significant technological accomplishment, and/or outstanding scholarship in the field of Rheology,” Norman Wagner, SoR President, said in an email announcing Khomami’s election. SoR was formed in 1929 and is one of the five founding members of the American Institute of Physics.

Khomami will be inducted at the Society Banquet during the 91st Annual Meeting of the Society, to be held October 20-24 in Raleigh, North Carolina.
