| Citation | Professor Stone contributes broadly and deeply over a wide variety of scientific fields, including fluid mechanics, chemical engineering, computational mathematics and theoretical biology. He is a co-author on something like 40 high quality scientific papers each year, which all appear in major journals (and every word is read and thought about by Stone, as his nominator and occasional co-author can attest).
