I want to congratulate Bioconductor Core Team Member Rafael Irizarry on winning 2 awards for his work. On August 6, Rafael was awarded The Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies (COPSS) President's Award. The award is presented in recognition of outstanding contributions to the statistics profession. Only 1 award is granted annually. This is considered the most prestigious award for younger investigators in Statistics. The citation is not yet up on the COPSS web page, but I know that Rafael's contributions to bioinformatics and Bioconductor were among the many works for which he received the award. On August 5, Rafael also became a Fellow of the American Statistical Association. Naomi S.
