Autorenporträt

Aaron Odom Aaron has a Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is currently a Professor of Chemistry at Michigan State University. His research group studies inorganic and organic synthesis, applications of catalysis to pharmacologically active compounds, and modeling of catalytic reactions. Remi Beaulac Remi Beaulac has a Ph.D. from University of Montreal and is currently a Professor of Chemistry at Swarthmore College. His research is in energy processes in inorganic nanomaterials. Adam R. Johnson Adam R. Johnson is a Professor of Chemistry at Harvey Mudd College where his research group studies chiral early metal complexes. He is a founding member of the Interactive Online Network of Inorganic Chemists. Mitch R. Smith Smith took what he learned about synthesis, reactivity, and mechanistic studies from his mentors Dick Andersen and Greg Hillhouse, and applied them in the field of catalysis. Researchers from Smith's group and those from groups of his collaborators have made important advances in C-H functionalization, electrocatalysis, and polymer science. James K. McCusker Jim McCusker received a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and is a Foundation Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Michigan State University. In his research, he studies fundamental aspects and applications of ultrafast processes and magnetic behavior in inorganic complexes. Chip Nataro Chip Nataro is the Marshall R. Metzgar Professor of Chemistry at Lafayette College in Easton, PA, USA. His research focuses on the synthesis, characterization and catalytic applications of transition metal compounds with bis(phosphino)metallocene ligands.
