Professor Richard Crooks awarded the 2010 Charles N. Reilley Award

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is pleased to announce that Professor and Department Chairman Richard Crooks is the 2010 recipient of the Charles N. Reilley Award in Electroanalytical Chemistry. The C. N. Reilley Award is given in memory of one of the most distigushed analytical chemists of the 20th century. Reilley's interests were both fundamental and broad. He made seminal contributions not only to electroanalysis, but also optical spectroscopy, NMR, chromatography, data analysis, instrumentation, and surface analysis. Reilley is central in the history of the Society for Electroanalytical Chemistry, which was formed following his death in 1981, as a vehicle for managing the award.

Professor Crooks' research focuses in electrochemistry, nanomaterials, catalysis, chemical and biological sensing, and microanalytical systems.
