The Camille & Henry Dreyfus Foundation to host important symposium on chemistry and the environment
Date:10/22/2008

edbacks in the climate system.

  • Kimberly Prather, Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry, the University of California, San Diego. Dr. Prather will present new insights into the chemistry of aerosols and their ability to change the earths temperature in her talk on the role of aerosols in climate change.

  • Dianne Newman, John and Dorothy Wilson Professor of Biology and Geobiology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dr. Newman will present her findings on bacterial-produced antibiotics that may boost the efficiency of microbial fuel cells in her lecture on the roles for redox-active antibiotics in microbial survival and development.

  • Eric Jacobsen, Sheldon Emery Professor of Chemistry, Harvard University. Dr. Jacobsen will address the search for practical and widely applicable catalysts for organic synthesis that can minimize or even eliminate the creation of waste, especially toxic waste, in his discussion of selective yet general catalysts.
