CHEMISTRY PROFESSOR OLAFS DAUGULIS RECEIVES 2006 JOURNAL AWARD
Science Journals Recognize Potential of Young Professor
Assistant Professor of Chemistry Olafs Daugulis was recently
selected by the editorial boards of Synlett and Synthesis as a 2006 Journal
Awardee. Individuals chosen for this award are defined by Synlett and Synthesis
as promising young professors at the beginning of their career. The journals
offer this select group of individuals free print and electronic subscriptions
to both journals, as a gesture of encouragement.
Daugulis’s research focuses on the convergence of
organic, organometallic, and polymer chemistry, often having direct technological
applications. He received a Degree of Engineer from Riga Technical University,
Riga, Latvia in 1991 and a PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison
in 1999. He was a postdoctoral associate at the University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill from 2000-2003. |
