I just got off the phone with Jeremy. His chemistry colleagues at USD had recommended tenure for him earlier in the year and the university’s trustees gave their stamp of approval in May.
Jeremy will be on sabbatical in 2010-11. He is planning on staying in San Diego in order to keep the family unit intact (his wife works at the Scripps Research Institute, aka “dry Scripps”, which is not to be confused with the Scripps Institute of Oceanography, aka “wet Scripps”), but will go on the road periodically. He will be attending the national ACS meeting in August and will come up to Portland on September 30 to present a seminar at Reed.
Jeremy’s research involves computer modeling of a wide range of species, including self-assembling molecules, the constituents of organic aerosols, and sandwich complexes.
Congratulations Jeremy!
