Physicists receive Knight Bachelor and DBE

By Hamish Johnston

Apologies to Colin Humphreys and Julia Goodfellow, whose names I missed when I scanned the honours list on Saturday.

Humphreys, who is director of research, Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy, University of Cambridge is to become a Knight Bachelor, for his “services to science”.

Goodfellow is vice-chancellor of the University of Surrey and will become a Dame Commander of the British Empire (DBE) for her “services to science”. Goodfellow is a biophysicist who uses computational methods to study large biologically important molecules.
