his was a good year for physics, the APS, and its members. The Higgs continued to grab headlines, Twith the awarding of the Nobel Prize to François Englert and Peter Higgs. Their award-winning papers on the Higgs mechanism were published in Physical Review Letters (where else?). The DPF organized a “Higgs Fest” on Capitol Hill, attended by 10 members of Congress and several hundred others, to celebrate the Higgs and the U.S. role in discovering it. In this, the hundredth year of our publishing the Physical Review, the APS prepared to add a new jour- nal to the family—Physical Review Applied. Our newest journal will publish the highest-quality papers at the intersection of physics and engineering, in areas including materials, surface and interface science; device physics; condensed matter physics and optics. 2013 was a big year for APS global engagement. We had our first overseas Fellows receptions—in London and Tokyo—and the Executive Board held its annual retreat abroad, at the Kavli Royal Society International Centre at Chicheley Hall, just outside London. At the retreat, the Executive Board spent time discussing areas for future collaboration with leaders of the IOP, the DFG, and the EPS. Close to 20,000 physicists attended APS meetings this year, with the March Meeting attendance top- ping 9,000. The March Kavli Session featured a talk by Secretary of Energy (and APS member!) Steven Chu on the Promise of Photovoltaics. As President, I had the pleasure of presenting APS Prizes and Awards at the April and March meetings as well as at the DPP meeting in November. In a year in which Congress achieved very little else, our Washington D.C. Office and APS-member phone calls helped get the Helium Bill—which ensures continuity in the helium supply for research- ers, hospital MRI machines, and the semiconductor industry alike—passed. The two-year-budget deal reached in December largely reversed the cuts to science resulting from sequestration and was an im- portant step in the return to “regular order” and a more rational appropriation process. We are moving forward with our Strategic Plan. The Early Career Task Force led by Brad Conrad reported its recommendations to the Executive Board, and plans are being made for a pilot program of “chapters” (Local Links) to serve early career members. The APS provided infrastructure to the Conferences for Undergraduate Women in Physics (CUWiP). This grassroots effort to encourage more women to study physics has now completed its eighth year, and it has grown to six regional sites within the U.S. that served nearly 900 attendees. The APS welcomed its first Industrial Fellow, Steven Lambert, who will help the APS to attract and better serve members working in industry. Kate Kirby, our Executive Officer, was appointed to a second five-year term, which begins in July 2014. Joe Serene, our Treasurer/Publisher for the past eight years, will be leaving this post at the end of August 2014. Thanks to his efforts the APS is financially sound and well-placed for the challenges facing scholarly publishing, including Open Access. There are other challenges ahead, including our Corporate Reform initiative and the continuing implementation of our Strategic Plan. I am confident that we will meet them, and I see an even brighter future for the APS. In closing, it has been an honor and a pleasure to serve as the President of the APS, an organization that does so much for physics and for the nation.

Sincerely yours,

Michael S. Turner 2013 President APS EDITORIAL OFFICE
