Selected as Harvard Radcliffe Institute Fellow for the 2024-2025 academic year. “Stepping into the rich intellectual community created by the Harvard Radcliffe Fellowship will provide the space and platform to engage with the wider world to identify areas where AI and computer science can help humans and the planet as well as where it may open new problems,” Solovey said. “This type of intellectual exchange is much-needed right now in computer science and artificial intelligence research. The field is moving rapidly and its impact on people and the planet is substantial and growing.”

Has been awarded a three-year grant from the U.S. Department of Education’s (DOE) Institute of Education Sciences to continue his work developing an artificial intelligence (AI) tutor that can help middle-school students learn math while doing homework.

Receives the prestigious IEEE Test-of-Time Award for groundbreaking visual data analytics work. This award honors articles published at previous IEEE  conferences, in this case in 2003, that have withstood the test of time by remaining useful 20 years later and that have had significant impact and influence on future advances within and beyond the visualization community.
