The CO-IN Symposia is honored to celebrate the extraordinary career of Prof. William A. Goddard III, a distinguished chemist and materials scientist whose groundbreaking contributions to the field have shaped the landscape of computational chemistry, molecular simulations, and materials science. Prof. Goddard, the Charles and Mary Ferkel Professor of Chemistry and Materials Science at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), has been at the forefront of scientific discovery for decades, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in materials design and molecular understanding.
The CO-IN Symposia is proud to recognize and celebrate the remarkable career of Prof. Debbie C. Crans, a distinguished chemist whose contributions to the scientific community have been nothing short of transformative. Prof. Crans, a professor at Colorado State University, is a leader in the field of chemistry, with a focus on the intricate roles of transition metals in biological systems. Her pioneering research has had far-reaching implications in both fundamental chemistry and its real-world applications, particularly in the realms of medicine and environmental science.
