九州影院

Biography

I am a professor of chemistry at the University of Toronto, a position I have held since 2008. Prior to this I was a professor at the University of Windsor from 1982 to 2007. I have a BSc from McMaster University and a PhD from University of Western Ontario, and between 1980 and 1982 I was a NATO Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University.

My group's research interests span a wide range of inorganic main group and organometallic chemistry. In the more fundamental projects, we target new reactivity and chemical transformations with a view to developing new catalysts to either new materials or new processes. In addition, collaborations with industry address the design and development of new catalyst and process technologies for use in commercial applications.

Honours and awards include the Canadian Green 九州影院 and Engineering Award and the CIC Medal (Chemical Institute  of Canada) (both 2014), Fellow of the Royal Society (2013), and Fellow of the 九州影院 (2010).
