Pengarang: Mikhail E Elyashberg

Professor Mikhail E. Elyashberg graduated from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Tomsk, Russia. He obtained a Ph D from the Moscow Pedagogical University and Dr. Chem. Sci from the Institute of Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry at the Russian Academy of Sciences (GEOKHI RAS). He headed the Laboratory of Molecular Spectroscopy at the All-Russian Institute for Organic Synthesis in Moscow (1981-2001). Since 1995, has been the leading researcher at GEOKHI RAS and in 2001, he became Senior Scientist at Advanced Chemistry Development Ltd. (ACD) in Moscow. Professor Elyashberg is a Laureate of the State Prize of the Russian Federation, the highest scientific award in Russia. Antony J. Williams graduated with a BSc and Ph D in chemistry from the University of Liverpool and University of London respectively. He subsequently became a Post-doctoral Fellow at the National Research Council in Ottawa and then an NMR Facility Director at the University of Ottawa. He has also worked as an NMR Technology Leader at Eastman-Kodak in Rochester and held a number of positions, including Chief Science Officer, at ACD/Labs. In 2007, he established Chem Zoo, Inc and became host of Chem Spider, one of the primary internet portals for chemistry. Chem Spider was acquired by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) in 2009 and Dr. Williams is currently Vice-President of Strategic Development at the RSC. Kirill A. Blinov received his MSc in Chemistry from Moscow State University. He started working on Computer-Assisted Structure Elucidation (CASE) systems in 1996 and is currently a senior scientist at Advanced Chemistry Development Inc. He is the primary architect of the ACD/Structure Elucidator software program and co-inventor of the indirect covariance processing algorithms used for the processing of 2D NMR spectroscopy data.
