Orpen, Guy - University of Bristol

个人简介

Although of South African stock, I was born on the island of Trinidad, was educated in England and subsequently obtained my B.Sc. at the University of Cape Town where I worked with Luigi Nassimbeni. I gained my Ph.D. at the University of Cambridge under the guidance of George. Sheldrick and Jack Lewis, during which time I carried out neutron diffraction research at Brookhaven National Laboratory, U.S.A. with Dick McMullan and Tom Koetzle. In 1979 I was appointed to a lectureship in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Bristol, and was promoted to Reader in 1990 and in 1994 to Professor of Structural Chemistry. I served as Head of the School of Chemistry (2001-6) and Dean of the Faculty of Science (2006-9). I served as Chair of the Heads of Chemistry UK in 2005-7. Since 2009 I have been Pro Vice-Chancellor for Research and Enterprise at the University of Bristol. I am Chair of the Board of Governors of the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre
