Associate Professor of Chemistry Tim Elgren delivered an invited talk at the Protein Derived Radicals, Cofactors, and Quinones Gordon Research Conference in Ventura, Calif. in January. The talk was titled "Sol-Gel Encapsulation of Enzymes: Mechanistic and Spectroscopic Studies."
The Gordon Research Conferences were initiated by Dr. Neil E. Gordon, of the Johns Hopkins University, who recognized in the late 1920s the difficulty in establishing good, direct communication between scientists, whether working in the same subject area or in interdisciplinary research. The Gordon Research Conferences promote discussions and the free exchange of ideas at the research frontiers of the biological, chemical and physical sciences. Scientists with common professional interests come together for a full week of intense discussion and examination of the most advanced aspects of their field. These Conferences provide a valuable means of disseminating information and ideas in a way that cannot be achieved through the usual channels of communication - publications and presentations at large scientific meetings.
