The Florida State University Board of Trustees has unanimously selected Richard McCullough, vice provost for research at Harvard University, to serve as the university’s 16th president.
McCullough will succeed John Thrasher, who will retire later this summer after serving as president since 2014.
The appointment is subject to approval by the Florida Board of Governors, which meets June 23.
“It is an honor to have the opportunity to lead Florida State University as its next president,” McCullough said. “Public universities are amazing engines of social change and mobility, and FSU is leading the way in that effort. The foundation is set for FSU to take its next jump up, and I’m excited to be a part of the team that will take it to the next level.”
ORC-Zepler: Si-photonics showcase reports âdramatic advancesâ

£6 million program, led by Graham Reed, has overcome significant R&D challenges for industry-compatible technology.
Silicon photonics advances could expand the capabilities of data centers. Silicon photonics experts highlighted the dramatic progress made this technology at a research showcase in mid-December, hosted by the Zepler Institute for Photonics and Nanoelectronics, Southampton, UK.
The Silicon Photonics for Future Systems (SPFS) Showcase reported advances that will both enhance conventional silicon photonics applications, but also transform new application areas such as programmable photonics and video production in mainstream media.
Highlights included a demonstration of very high data rate transmission, wafer scale testing technology, multilayer photonic circuits, and lasers integrated on silicon chips.
