Galen D. Stucky (born 17 December 1936) is an American inorganic materials chemist who is a Distinguished Professor and the Essam Khashoggi Chair In Materials Chemistry at the University of California, Santa Barbara.[1] He is noted for his work with porous ordered mesoporous materials such as SBA-15. He won the Prince of Asturias Award in 2014, in the Scientific and Technological Research area. Stucky was elected a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1994,[2] a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2005,[3] and a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 2013.[4][5]
Early life and education
Stucky was born on December 17, 1936, in McPherson, Kansas.[6][7] He graduated with a Bachelor's of Science degree at McPherson College in 1957.[6] Stucky pursued graduate studies at Iowa State University, where he worked under Prof. Robert E. Rundle on the synthesis and characterization of the diethyl ether-solvated phenylmagnesium bromide Grignard reagent,[8][9] and an oxidation product formed from its exposure to oxygen.[10] Stucky received his PhD in physical chemistry in 1962.[1] From 1962 to 1963, he was a postdoctoral associate in the Department of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology under Prof. Clifford G. Shull.[6]
Career
Stucky began his independent academic career in 1964 as an assistant professor at the
In 1985, Stucky joined the faculty of the University of California, Santa Barbara. He is the E. Khashoggi Industries, LLC Professor in Letters and Science, Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry (College of Letters and Science), Professor in the Materials Department (College of Engineering), and a member of the Interdepartmental Program in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.[12]
Notability
Stucky has been ranked in the top five most-cited materials scientists in the world, according to
He is also the co-chair of the Scientific Advisory Board of the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (IBN),
Research group
Alumni of Stucky's research group include Angela Belcher of MIT, Peidong Yang at UC Berkeley,Dongyuan Zhao at Fudan University, Yiying Wu at Ohio State, Kyong-Shin Choi at Wisconsin and Shannon Boettcher at the University of Oregon among many other notable scientists.[21] In late 2006, former and current group members and colleagues gathered for a Symposium on Recent Advances in Nanoscale Materials Research at UCSB to celebrate Stucky's 70th birthday.[22] The event was hosted by CNSI (Elings Hall[23]) at UCSB.[24]
