Robert Calderbank (born 1954) is a professor of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Mathematics and director of the Information Initiative at Duke.[1] He received a BSc from Warwick University in 1975, an MSc from Oxford in 1976, and a PhD from Caltech, all in mathematics. He joined Bell Labs in 1980, and retired from AT&T Labs in 2003 as Vice President for Research and Internet and network systems. He then went to Princeton as a professor of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Applied and Computational Mathematics, before moving to Duke in 2010 to become Dean of Natural Sciences.[2]
His contributions to coding and information theory won the IEEE Information Theory Society Paper Award in 1995 and 1999.[3] While at Bell Labs, he co-discovered space–time coding. He was elected to the US National Academy of Engineering in 2005,[4] became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society in 2012,[5] and won the 2013 IEEE Richard W. Hamming Medal[6] and the 2015 Claude E. Shannon Award.
He is married to Ingrid Daubechies.[7]
