Congratulations to Prof. Alán Aspuru-Guzik, collaborator and newly announced Canada 150 Research Chair, on joining University of Toronto
Congratulations to Prof. Alán Aspuru-Guzik who has recently been announced as one of 20 Canada 150 Research Chairs, announced today by Minister of Science Kirsty Duncan.
Aspuru-Guzik is a tenured professor at Harvard University, world-leading researcher in theoretical and computational chemistry and a Senior Fellow in CIFAR’s Bio-inspired Solar Energy program. He is jointly appointed to the departments of chemistry and computer science as the Canada 150 Research Chair in Theoretical & Quantum Chemistry. This summer, he will arrive at U of T, which is internationally known for its strengths in chemistry and artificial intelligence.
We are excited to welcome Alán. You can read about his story in the Globe and Mail here: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-canada-150-research-chairs-draw-scientists-fleeing-trump-guns-and/
