Robert Oppenheimer, scientific director of the Manhattan Project. In 1956 he joined the faculty at Johns Hopkins University, staying there until his retirement in 2000. He is recognized for his work in high-energy physics, quantum electrodynamics and atomic theory. Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria. He was both a Fulbright Research Scholar and Guggenheim Fellow [1964], a fellow of the American Physical Society. He is considered the father of high-energy physics at JHU.
