  • Richard N. Zare Stanford University Adventures in Chemical Analysis
    Richard N. Zare Stanford University Adventures in Chemical Analysis One of the great challenges in chemistry is to penetrate the world of the ultra small, to view nearly infinitesimal spaces, and to recognize their importance. Indeed, the analysis and manipulation of volumes so tiny that they are almost beyond comprehension is a critical element of the emerging field of chemical nanosciences and nanotechnology. These capabilities unlock secrets of nature. These secrets underlie how cells function, how reactions occur, how energy and information is stored and transported, and how such structures can be tailored to be useful devices for mankind from sensors to motors to computers. I want to take this opportunity to present my own adventures in exploring how to analyze complex mixtures for their chemical constituents. I hope to touch on laser induced fluorescence, chemical separations in capillaries and microchips, and the use of optical techniques as well as mass spectrometry. Bio Richard N. Zare is the Marguerite Blake Wilbur Professor in Natural Science and Chair of the Department of Chemistry, Stanford University. He was born on November 19, 1939 in Cleveland, Ohio, and is a graduate of Harvard University, where he received his B.A. degree in chemistry and physics in 1961 and his Ph.D. in chemical physics in 1964. In 1965 he became an assistant professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but moved to the University of Colorado in 1966, remaining there until 1969 while holding joint appointments in the departments of chemistry, and physics and astrophysics. In 1969 he was appointed to a full professorship in the chemistry department at Columbia University, becoming the Higgins Professor of Natural Science in 1975.

  • Sir David and Lady Clary Chemistry Fund Sir David and Lady Clary Chemistry Fund
    Sir David and Lady Clary Chemistry Fund Sir David and Lady Clary Chemistry Fund Chemistry at Magdalen and the University of Oxford Chemistry has a long history at the University of Oxford. The Department of Chemistry is the largest chemistry department in the UK and one of the largest in the western world. Oxford chemists have won at least nine Nobel prizes including Magdalen Fellow Sir Robert Robinson (Chemistry, 1947, for investigations of plant products), Frederic Soddy (Physics, 1921, for his discovery of isotopes), and Dorothy Hodgkin (Chemistry, 1964, for the x-ray structure of penicillin). One of the earliest notable Magdalen chemists was Charles Daubeny (1795–1867). After studying at Magdalen under John Kidd, Daubeny simultaneously held Chairs in Chemistry, Botany, and Geology. However, interest in the sciences can be traced back to the Magdalen’s founder, William of Waynflete, and it was in his honour that the highly distinguished Waynflete Professorships (in Metaphysical Philosophy, Chemistry, Physiology and Pure Mathematics) were established in 1857. The Waynflete Professor of Chemistry has been the University’s most distinguished Chair in Organic Chemistry ever since, and holders have included Professors Sir Benjamin Brodie, William Odling, William Henry Perkin, Sir Robert Robinson (Nobel Laureate, 1947), Sir Jack Baldwin and the current incumbent, Stephen G Davies. The present day Of the 28 Colleges offering Chemistry, Magdalen is one of only five fortunate enough to have a full complement of three Tutorial Fellows in Chemistry: Professors Tim Donohoe (Organic), Andrew Weller (In- organic) and Stuart Mackenzie (Physical and Theoretical Chemistry). Each of these also runs an internation- ally–leading research group in the Department of Chemistry.

With twenty-one Faculty and two DST INSPIRE Faculty members, the Department is flourishing on all fronts since its inception in 2012. Teaching courses for the BSMS, Int-PhD and PhD students cover the various fundamental and advanced concepts in chemistry, comprising ino rganic, organic, physical, materials and theoretical chemistry. The Faculty is also actively involved in research activities across the different disciplines, which is evident from the quality and numbers of research papers published in reputed Journals and patents filed. Several of the faculty and students are recipients of prestigious awards that are listed in these pages. I firmly believe that the Department will continue to grow in strength and obtain further accolades in future, and I wish the Faculty, staff members and students all success in their endeavours. J.
