"Boston University’s Danielle Citron, whose pioneering and policy-shaping work in countering hate crimes, revenge porn, and other cyberspace abuses has made her one of the nation’s leading privacy and constitutional law scholars, has been named a 2019 MacArthur Fellow.

Citron, a School of Law professor of law, and the other 25 new fellows, whose names were announced Wednesday morning by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, will each receive a $625,000 no-strings-attached “genius” grant, spread over five years, in recognition of their exceptional creativity, significant achievements, and promise for future advances. For researchers, writers, scientists, entrepreneurs, and all recipients, it is one of the highest honors they can receive."
