He earned his doctorate from Columbia University and his B.S. from the University of California, Los Angeles.

Many of these transformations involve careful consideration of how to choreograph the movement of protons and electrons around a transition metal ion in a controlled fashion. 4:30-6:00pm Poster Symposium: Trexler Room Social Hour Menu: Cheese and Fruit Display, Crisp Crudities Platter with soda and water 6:00-9:00 Dinner, Awards, Meeting and Talk: Commonwealth Room Dinner Menu: Pasta Buffet Dinner with vegetarian option and dessert.
