Philosophy Our research group has a multidisciplinary collection of students from Chemistry, ECOS, Biology, Biochemistry, Psychology and Computer Sciences. It is our belief that new, innovative, breakthrough technologies are going to be required in order to provide society with materials and processes that will not harm human health or the environment. By applying the principles of Green Chemistry in a broad spectrum of applications, we aim to contribute sustainable alternatives for industry's use. We recognize the value of diversity in research. We have found that by identifying overlap of disciplines leads to dramatically different ways of doing things. Examples of some of our projects include solar energy devices, drug delivery systems, immunosuppression pharmaceuticals, anticancer compounds, antibiotics, microelectronics, holography and renewable plastics. All researchers in our group participate in K-12/community outreach initiatives in environmental and science/math education. We have an active program to visit or host groups of people to illustrate Green Chemistry as a proactive vehicle for pollution prevention. We are committed to bringing the benefits of environmentally benign research to the nonscience community. From a technical perspective, most of our work involves understanding how molecules organize and react in natural systems. We are learning how plants acquire light energy, how cell membranes maintain fluid properties, how minerals acquire colors and shapes, how DNA is damaged under sunlight, and other things... We believe that if one wants to build a material that is environmentally benign and safe, drawing inspiration from nature is a good starting point - because they have already evolved within a sustainable ecosystem.

Philosophy of ChemistryA New Interdisciplinary Field? Eric R. Scerri Department of Chemistry, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907 Chemistry and philosophy, which may seem to be very different disciplines, have recently undergone a rapprochement with the rebirth of philosophy of chemistry. This article discusses recent developments in this new interdisciplinary field, including work on the alleged reduction of chemistry to quantum mechanics, the role of models, naive realism, and the question of molecular structure. It is argued that as chemistry continues to grow in sophistication, these and other conceptual issues become increasingly important to chemical educators at all levels. Citation : Scerri, Eric R.

Philosophy of Chemistry: Between the Manifest and the Scientific Image (by J. van Brakel) reviewed by A. Truman Schwartz Department of Chemistry, Macalester College, St. Paul, MN 55125 Leuven University Press: Leuven, Belgium, 2000. xiv + 246 pp. ISBN 90-5867-063-5. 700 BEF (17.35 eu). It is safe to assert that most chemists are not given to philosophical speculation. We are a pretty pragmatic bunch, and our pragmatism has proved to be fruitful. Physicists deal with the ultimate nature of matter and the origin of the universe. Biologists contemplate questions such as "what is life and how did it begin?" Chemists make paradichlorobenzene and drip-dry shirts. Not many of us ponder the ontological status of the compound we're trying to synthesize or the epistemological assumptions inherent in the computer program we're using to model molecular structure. Therefore, one might expect a book entitled Philosophy of Chemistry to be a slim volume. To be sure, the work at hand contains only 200 pages of text, but it is pretty concentrated stuff, with almost 500 footnotes and 31 closely packed pages of references. That's not bad for a subdiscipline that, according to the author, didn't really begin until 1994. If nothing else, this avalanche of information certainly appears to contradict the statement that van Brakel quotes from a physicist named Dingle: "Chemistry rightly figures prominently in the history of science; in the philosophy of science it should not figure at all."

HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL I envisaged to study philosophy at the University of Strasbourg, but being still undecided, I began with first year courses in physical, chemical and natural sciences (SPCN). During this year 1957/58, I was impressed by the coherent and rigorous structure of organic chemistry. I was particularly receptive to the experimental power of organic chemistry, which was able to convert at will, it seemed, complicated substances into one another following well defined rules and routes. I bought myself compounds and glassware and began performing laboratory practice experiments at my parents home. The seed was sown, so that when, the next year, I followed the stimulating lectures of a newly appointed young professor, Guy Ourisson, it became clear to me that I wanted to do research in organic chemistry. Robert Burns Woodward at Harvard University, where I took part in the immense enterprise of the total synthesis of Vitamin B . This was the second decisive stage of my life as a researcher. I also followed a course in quantum mechanics and performed my first computations with Roald Hoffmann . I had the chance to witness in 1964 the initial stages of what was to become the Woodward-Hoffmann rules. In 1965 I married Sylvie Lederer and we have two sons, David (born 1966) and Mathias (born 1969).

Home Research Teaching People ... Invited Talks There is increasing interest among philosophers of science to study chemistry as a distinct branch of science. An emergent group (e.g. McIntyre, 1999; Scerri, 1996) have contributed to the formulation of the new field of 'philosophy of chemistry'. The First International Conference on Philosophy of Chemistry was held in 1994. The annual meetings of the American Chemical Society have been devoting sessions to issues surrounding the interplay of philosophy and chemistry. The first issue of a new journal, Foundations of Chemistry , dedicated to philosophy of chemistry was published in 1999. There is now an on-line journal, HYLE For information on the International Society for Philosophy of Chemistry, please visit http://ispc.sas.upenn.edu/.

Chemistry Department Philosophy Chemistry is a dynamic and evolving science that touches our lives, our cultures, our careers, and our environment. It is a multifaceted science that is simultaneously theoretical and experimental. Chemists explore the changes and transformations in the molecular world as a means to understand the composition, predict the properties, and modify the structure of materials around us. As the "central science," all other natural sciences depend on chemistry to provide concepts and processes important to their advancement. Knowledge of chemistry provides a more complete and robust appreciation of everyday phenomena, and a strong foundation in chemistry is an asset to any future career. Chemistry is essential for literate citizens, and an accurate perception of chemistry is invaluable for making sound personal, political, and economic decisions. On an aesthetic level, the atomic architecture of the world around us is inherently beautiful and inspirational. The student of chemistry will experience the rich personal satisfaction, excitement, and fascination that abound in its study. Chemistry is a way of understanding our world that can only be developed through rigorous problem-solving, thoughtful discussion, hands-on experiments, and independent research. The faculty in chemistry are committed to providing these educational opportunities and to fostering success for all our students.

Teaching Philosophy and Interests of William F. Polik Teaching Philosophy While a teacher can distribute a syllabus, deliver lectures, grade exams, and assign grades, all actual learning is done by the student Thus I view my role in the teaching/learning process not only as a “communicator,” but also as a “facilitator” and “motivator” whereby I empower and encourage students to learn. At the outset of every class, I describe where we are heading and what we can expect to learn. I welcome learners of all styles into the classroom through the use of different teaching styles and techniques in my classes ( e.g. , lecture, real-life applications, demonstrations, discussion, worksheets, group exercises, student presentations). I attempt to interject some of my personality into the course through enthusiasm, humor, and personal experiences. I encourage student questions during and outside of classes, and I incorporate independent projects into my courses as a means for pursuing individual student interests. My lectures are designed not only to explain and summarize concepts, but also to provide context and links to topics beyond what we are immediately learning in the class.
