Ta n g I m p o r t a n t Ac c o m p l i s h m e n t s a n d Ha p p e n i n g s (c o n t .) • Newsweek and The Washington Monthly both named UR among the nation’s top 25 universities • Initiated the formation of a cluster system of research in the Department • Currently, the Department’s strengths include inorganic/organometallic chemistry while the more traditional strengths of organic synthesis, biological chemistry, and physical and nuclear chemistry continue to flourish • Hired Harry Stern in computational chemistry, Bradley Nilsson in organic chemistry, and David McCamant in experimental physical chemistry • Doris Johns Cherry Professor Ching Tang, whose primary appointment is in Chemical Engineering, is jointly appointed to Chemistry and Physics after a distinguished career at Kodak, where he was a pioneer in organic electronics, including solar cells and OLEDs • Goal: From 1975 until the mid-1990’s, the Chemistry graduate program grew and peaked at 140 graduate students and 40 postdocs. Today, the Department has approximately 100 graduate students and postdocs. The goal is to have 120 graduate students and 40 postdocs. • Goal: Currently, raising funds for the Gates and Kende chairs, in synthetic organic chemistry and ultimately for at least one additional chair in physical chemistry or inorganic chemistry 46
