Professor and �鶹�� Research Alliance Vasser Woolley Chair in Molecular Design  has become an  (IOP) Fellow. It is the highest degree of membership awarded by the society.

"The IOP has a long and distinguished history as the primary learned society and professional body for physicists in the U.K., Ireland, and beyond,” says Kamerlin, who completed both a Master of Natural Sciences and a Ph.D. in Theoretical Organic Chemistry from the  in the United Kingdom. “As a society, it plays an important role in building community, promoting science, advancing advocacy for our discipline, and supporting the next generation of physicists.”

Kamerlin joins a list of distinguished Fellows that includes legendary physicists such as , a preeminent astrophysicist responsible for the discovery of pulsars (a previously unknown type of star) and the first female president of the IOP.

“It is a great honor to be awarded Fellowship of the IOP, particularly as women more broadly remain vastly underrepresented in physics,” Kamerlin says. “I look forward to giving back to the physics community, supporting the mission of the society, and working to remind the next generation that physics is for everyone."

���������������’s&�Բ�����; is at the intersection of chemistry and biology, where she focuses on investigating fundamental physical chemistry and using computational tools to understand complex biomolecular problems. Currently, she is interested in leveraging machine learning tools to design new enzymes and in predicting protein structures and behaviors using large language models.

In addition to her roles at �鶹�� Tech, Kamerlin is a senior editor of , the editor-in-chief of , and was named a 2025-27 visiting professor at . She was also named a Fellow of the , received the 2026  from the , and was the 2023  Theory & Computation Subgroup Mid-Career Award Winner.
