Three Neuroscience Concentrators Elected to PBK

Neuroscience concentrators Anahita Iyer (‘19), EJ Kim (‘19), and Sanjay Patil (‘19) have been elected to Phi Beta Kappa (PBK), the oldest and most prestigious academic honor society in the United States. Each May, Harvard’s chapter of PBK, called Alpha Iota, inducts approximately 96 seniors whose academic track records demonstrate both excellence and versatility.

In addition to celebrating outstanding undergraduate scholarship, PBK advocates for the liberal arts and facilitates exchange of ideas through its networks. With a history stretching back to 1776 and 290 chapters at American colleges and universities, PBK’s alumni include presidents, supreme court justices, astronauts, and other world leaders.

Congratulations to these standout students!
