David Pines (June 8th, 1924-) is is the Founding Director of the Institute for Complex Adaptive Matter (a Multicampus Research Program of the University of California --http://icam-i2cam.org), Distinguished Professor of Physics, U C Davis, Research Professor of Physics and Professor Emeritus of Physics and Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Center for Advanced Study, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and a staff member in the office of the Materials, Physics, and Applications Division at Los Alamos.
His seminal contributions to the theory of many-body systems and to theoretical astrophysics have been recognized by two Guggenheim Fellowships, the Feenberg Medal, Friemann, Dirac, and Drucker Prizes, and by his election to the National Academy of Sciences, American Philosophical Society, American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences, and Hungarian Academy of Sciences and Visiting Professorships at Caltech, College de France, Trinity College, University of Cambridge, University of Leiden, and Universite de Paris.
He is the Founding Director of the Center for Advanced Study, UIUC (1968-70), was Vice-President of the Aspen Center for Physics from 1968-1972, founder and Co-chair of the US-USSR Cooperative Program in Physics, 1968-89; and a Co-founder, Vice-President, Chair of the Board of Trustees, and Co-Chair of the Science Board the Santa Fe Institute, during the years 1982-96.
He has been the organizer or co-organizer of fifteen workshops and two summer schools of theoretical physics, is currently an Honorary Trustee and Honorary Member of the Aspen Center for Physics, and a member of the Board of Overseers, Sabanci University, Istanbul.

[edit] Research Interests
His current research concerns the search for the organizing principles responsible for emergent behavior in materials where unexpectedly new classes of behavior emerge in response to the strong and competing interactions among their elementary constituents. Some recent research results on correlated electron materials are the development of a consistent phenomenological description of protected magnetic behavior in the pseudogap state of underdoped cuprate superconductors and the discovery of the protected emergence of itinerancy in the Kondo lattice in heavy electron materials and its description using a two-fluid model. I continue my interest in the superfluidity of neutron stars revealed by pulsar glitches and in elementary excitations in the helium liquids.
