Associate Dean of Research for the UC Davis College of Engineering Raissa M. D'Souza (Mario Rodriguez/UC Davis)
D’Souza has been elected for her seminal contributions to the physics of complex systems, including abrupt phase transitions, cascading failures and network control. She is also honored for her visionary role in advancing the field of network science. Her work on network theory and complex systems has resulted in more than 130 published works and has appeared in journals such as Science, PNAS, Physical Review Letters and Nature Physics.
She has been the recipient of numerous honors, including being elected Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2016 and of the Network Science Society in 2019, as well as receiving the inaugural Euler Award of the Network Science Society in 2019. D’Souza has received multiple distinguished paper awards and earned a Test-of-Time Award in 2018 and the 2017 UC Davis College of Engineering Outstanding Mid-Career Faculty Research Award. She has served on the editorial board of numerous scientific journals, including the Journal of Complex Networks and Internet Mathematics. She currently serves on the board of reviewing editors at Science and was the president of the Network Science Society from 2015 to 2018.
D’Souza earned her Bachelor of Science in Physics at the University of Illinois and her Ph.D. in statistical physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology before completing postdoctoral research at Bell Laboratories and Microsoft Research. She joined UC Davis as an assistant professor in 2005.

The general principles derived provide insights into the behaviors of real-world networks such as infrastructure networks and social networks, and opportunities to identify small interventions to control the self-organizing, collective behaviors displayed in these systems.
