Biography
He held positions at the University of Illinois, Sandia National Laboratory, and DuPont Central Research and Development before joining the faculty of the University of California, Santa Barbara, in 1985. He is currently a professor in the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry and in the Materials Department, and a member of the Interdepartmental Program in Biomolecular Science and Engineering. He has published over 600 scientific articles and has been awarded a dozen patents. Stucky's research interests: Organic/inorganic interface chemistry including the molecular assembly of material systems with integrated nanoscale to macroscale functionalities; the use of inorganic species and surfaces to define biomolecular assembly (e.g., transmembrane proteins) and biosystem processes (e.g. blood clotting cascade chemistry and hemostasis); conversion of methane (biomethane and stranded natural gas) to chemicals and fuels; meso- and nanostructured photovoltaic and photocatalytic composite systems; gradient materials and interfaces; and understanding Nature's routes to organic/inorganic bioassembly.
