An article, "An ONIOM Study of the Bergman Reaction: A Computationally Efficient and Accurate Method for Modeling the Enediyne Anticancer Antibiotics," by Steven Feldgus, Dreyfus Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow of Chemistry, and George Shields, professor and chair, has been accepted for publication in Chemical Physics Letters.
Feldgus joined the faculty in 2000 as Hamilton's first Dreyfus Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow of Chemistry. He received his Ph.D. in physical chemistry from the University of Wisconsin where he completed a thesis, "A Hybrid Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics Study of Rhodium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation."
While at Hamilton, Feldgus has worked with Shields, sharing his teaching and research duties. During his first year, Feldgus designed and taught project-based physical chemistry laboratories.
