报告人简介：
Professor Richard N. Zare is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society, as well as a Foreign Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He currently serves as the Marguerite Blake Wilbur Professor in Natural Science at Stanford University. His dedication to research and teaching has been recognized in many awards, including the National Medal of Science, the Wolf Prize in Chemistry, and the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering Mentoring. He has also received 11 honorary doctorates. A pioneer in the use of lasers to study chemical reactions at the molecular level, Professor Zare pursues diverse theoretical and experimental interests in physical chemistry and nanoscale chemical analysis. The Zarelab has made a broad impact in analytic chemistry with the development of laser-induced fluorescence to study reaction dynamics, and seminal contributions to the understanding of molecular collision processes. The group continues to invent tools and measurement techniques to study phenomena from reactions in microdroplets to drug delivery.
