ACM Names 2025 Fellows
January 21, 2026
ACM has named 71 new Fellows. ACM Fellows are registered members of the society and were selected by their peers for achieving remarkable results through their technical innovations and/or service to the field. This year’s honorees hail from 14 countries and were chosen from among ACM’s global membership of more than 100,000 computing professionals.
“These men and women represent the top 1% of professionals in our association,” explained ACM President Yannis Ioannidis. “I personally enjoy reviewing the list of achievements of the new Fellows because it offers a snapshot of what’s happening in our field at the moment. This year, for example, we are honoring members working in well-established disciplines such as computer architecture and software engineering, alongside innovators in emerging disciplines like swarm intelligence or scene recognition. As we congratulate the new Fellows for their accomplishments, we hope that their work will also serve as an inspiration to the next generation. We especially encourage those who are not yet ACM members to join us and become part of a vibrant global community.”
The 2025 ACM Fellows work at leading universities, corporations, and research institutions in Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. This year’s Fellows are cited for contributions in a wide range of computing research areas including AI for healthcare, computer graphics, data management, electronic mail, human-computer interaction, mobile computing, networked systems, robotics, security, sustainability, and numerous other areas.
ACM Fellows serve as ambassadors for the organization and are often called upon to offer their expertise to the media, public officials, and industry leaders. The ACM Fellows will be formally recognized during an awards banquet on June 13 in San Francisco.
