CHICAGO ACS WELCOMES FRASER STODDARD TO CHICAGO

摘要

Fraser Stoddard is joining the Northwestern University faculty effective January 1, 2008. He is the Fred Kavli Chair of Nanosystems Sciences professor at UCLA and, until August 31, 2007, was Director of the California Nanosystems Institute. Fraser is an accomplished researcher in synthetic organic chemistry and has been focused in part on the consequences of Moore's Law whereby computer components are becoming smaller and smaller and where by extrapolation one can expect they will be single molecules. Indeed, Fraser was a principal speaker at a National American Chemical Society Meeting four years ago as part of a Symposium we organized The Chemistry of Computers.
