(Dr. Mrityunjay Singh)
(Chronicle note: Dr. Mrityunjay Singh is working as Chief Scientist at NASA Glenn Research Center at Cleveland, Ohio.) He can be contacted at: m.singh@juno.com
Dr. Mrityunjay ‘Jay” Singh, Chief Scientist, Ohio Aerospace Institute, NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland, OH has been elected a full member of the International Institute for the Science of Sintering (IISS), Belgrade, Serbia. Established in 1968, IISS is an independent organization founded to promote achievements in the field of sintering along with related areas of materials science and technology. The institute also publishes the international journal “Science of Sintering”. Dr. Singh has also been appointed as regional (North American) editor of this journal.
Generally, the election of new members to the institute starts with the position of corresponding member before promotion to full membership. However, Dr. Singh was elected as full member due to his extraordinary contributions to various areas related to advanced processing and manufacturing as well as joining and integration of advanced ceramics and composites, metal-ceramic systems, and environment conscious ceramics. Currently, the organization has only about 65 full members elected from all over the world. The formal induction of new IISS members will take place during the opening ceremony of the next World Round Table Conference on Sintering in 2010.
The award also acknowledges Dr. Singh’s distinguished career. A member of the Board of Governors of Acta Materialia, Inc., he is an Academician of the World Academy of Ceramics and a Fellow of American Ceramic Society, as well as ASM International and the Institute of Mining, Minerals and Materials (UK). He is the recipient of more than 40 national and international awards, including four R&D 100 awards, FLC Technology Transfer Award, NASA Public Service Medal, NASA Silver Snoopy Award, Ishikawa International Carbon Prize, Japan Fine Ceramics Association International Prize and Gottfried Wagner Memorial Award from Japan, International Award from the European Ceramic Society, ASM International-IIM Visiting Lectureship, Jacques-Lucas Award from ASM International, ACerS’ Richard M. Fulrath, Samuel Geijsbeek, and James I. Mueller Awards. He has authored or coauthored 30 books and journal volumes, six book chapters, published more than two hundred 245 papers in journals and proceedings. He currently serves on the advisory boards and committees of more than a dozen highly respected international journals and technical publications.

Aims and Scope
Science of Sintering, the journal of the International Institute for the Science of Sintering is a unique journal in the field of science and technology of sintering.
Science of Sintering publishes papers on all aspects of theoretical and experimental studies, which can contribute to the better understanding of the behavior of powders and similar materials during consolidation processes. Emphasis is laid on those aspects of the science of materials that are concerned with the thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanism of sintering and related processes.
In accordance with the significance of disperse materials for the sintering technology, papers dealing with the question of ultradisperse powders, tribochemical activation and catalysis are also published.
Science of Sintering journal is published three times a year.
Types of contribution: Original research papers, Review articles, Letters to Editor, Book reviews.
