THEODORE L. BROWN received his Ph.D. from Michigan State University
in 1956. Since then, he has been a member of the faculty of the
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, where he is now Professor
of Chemistry, Emeritus. He served as Vice Chancellor for Research,
and Dean, The Graduate College, from 1980 to 1986, and as Founding
Director of the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Institute for Advanced
Science and Technology from 1987 to 1993. Professor Brown has been
an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Research Fellow and has been awarded
a Guggenheim Fellowship. In 1972 he was awarded the American
Chemical Society Award for Research in Inorganic Chemistry, and
received the American Chemical Society Award for Distinguished
Service in the Advancement of Inorganic Chemistry in 1993. He has
been elected a Fellow of both the American Association for the
Advancement of Science and the American Academy of Arts and
Sciences.
H. EUGENE LEMAY, JR., received his B.S. degree in Chemistry from
Pacific Lutheran University
(Washington) and his Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1966 from the University
of Illinois (Urbana). He then joined the faculty of the University
of Nevada, Reno, where he is currently Professor of Chemistry,
Emeritus. He has enjoyed Visiting Professorships at the University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, at the University College of
Wales in Great Britain, and at the University of California, Los
Angeles. Professor LeMay is a popular and effective teacher, who
has taught thousands of students during more than 35 years of
university teaching. Known for the clarity of his lectures and his
sense of humor, he has received several teaching awards, including
the University Distinguished Teacher of the Year Award (1991) and
the first Regents’ Teaching Award given by the State of Nevada
Board of Regents (1997).
BRUCE E. BURSTEN received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the
University of Wisconsin in 1978. After two years as a National
Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at Texas A&M University,
he joined the faculty of The Ohio State University, where he rose
to the rank of Distinguished University Professor. In 2005, he
moved to his present position at the University of Tennessee,
Knoxville as Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Dean of the
College of Arts and Sciences. Professor Bursten has been a Camille
and Henry Dreyfus Foundation Teacher-Scholar and an Alfred P. Sloan
Foundation Research Fellow, and he has been elected a Fellow of the
American Association for the Advancement of Science. At Ohio State
he has received the University Distinguished Teaching Award in 1982
and 1996, the Arts and Sciences Student Council Outstanding
Teaching Award in 1984, and the University Distinguished Scholar
Award in 1990. He received the Spiers Memorial Prize and Medal of
the Royal Society of Chemistry in 2003, and the Morley Medal of the
Cleveland Section of the American Chemical Society in 2005. He was
elected President of the American Chemical Society for 2008. In
addition to his teaching and service activities, Professor
Bursten's research program focuses on compounds of the
transition-metal and actinide elements.
CATHERINE J. MURPHY received two B.S. degrees, one in Chemistry and
one in Biochemistry, from the
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, in 1986. She received her
Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Wisconsin in 1990. She
was a National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health
Postdoctoral Fellow at the California Institute of Technology from
1990 to 1993. In 1993, she joined the faculty of the University of
South Carolina, Columbia, where she is currently the Guy F.
Lipscomb Professor of Chemistry. Professor Murphy has been honored
for both research and teaching as a Camille Dreyfus
Teacher-Scholar, an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Research Fellow, a
Cottrell Scholar of the Research Corporation, a National Science
Foundation CAREER Award winner and a subsequent NSF Award for
Special Creativity. She has also received a USC Mortar Board
Excellence in Teaching Award, the USC Golden Key Faculty Award for
Creative Integration of Research and Undergraduate
Teaching, the USC Michael J. Mungo Undergraduate Teaching Award,
and the USC Outstanding Undergraduate Research Mentor Award. Since
2006, Professor Murphy has served as a Senior Editor to the Journal
of Physical Chemistry. Professor Murphy’s research program focuses
on the synthesis and optical properties of inorganic nanomaterials,
and on the local structure and dynamics of the DNA double
helix.
PATRICK M. WOODWARD received B.S. degrees in both Chemistry and
Engineering from Idaho State University in 1991. He received a M.S.
degree in Materials Science and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Oregon
State University in 1996. He spent two years as a postdoctoral
researcher in the Department of Physics at Brookhaven National
Laboratory. In 1998, he joined the faculty of the Chemistry
Department at The Ohio State University where he currently holds
the rank of Associate Professor. He has enjoyed visiting
professorships at the University of Bordeaux, in France, and the
University of Sydney, in Australia. Professor Woodward has been an
Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Research Fellow and a National Science
Foundation CAREER Award winner. He currently serves as an Associate
Editor to the Journal of Solid State Chemistry and as the director
of the Ohio REEL program, an NSF funded center that works to bring
authentic research experiments into the laboratories of 1st and 2nd
year chemistry classes in 15 colleges and universities across the
state of Ohio. Professor Woodward’s research program focuses on
understanding the links between bonding, structure and properties
of solid state inorganic functional materials.
