Professor Spergel is a MacArthur Fellow. He has served as the chair of the Astrophysics Subcommittee of the NASA Advisory Council and was once the W.M. Keck distinguished visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey.

Bennett and Lyman Alexander Page, Jr. for their work on WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe). He shared the 2015 Dannie Heineman Prize with Marc Kamionkowski "for their outstanding contributions to the investigation of the fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background that have led to major breakthroughs in our understanding of the universe"〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New Jersey Astrophysicist David Spergel Wins 2015 Dannie Heineman Prize )〕 ==Education== Spergel was born in Rochester, New York, and attended John Glenn High School, Huntington, NY. He obtained a Bachelor's degree in Astronomy (''summa cum laude'') from Princeton University in 1982, and was a visiting scholar at Oxford University in 1983.
