The medal associated with this prestigious award will be granted at the International Congress of Acoustics, which takes place this September in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The award was modeled after the Fields prize in Mathematics and has only been granted five times since its inception in 2004. Dr. Russo’s award will mark the first time that the medal has been granted to an individual hailing from the Americas or to an individual working outside of the core science and engineering disciplines that tend to be associated with acoustics.
