Henry Stephen Rzepa (born 1950)

Computational Chemistry at Imperial College London.[4][5][6]

Education

Rzepa was born in 1950 and was educated at

physical organic chemistry of indoles supervised by Brian Challis.[7][8]

Career and research

After spending three years doing

postdoctoral research at the University of Texas at Austin, Texas with Michael Dewar[9] in the then emerging field of computational chemistry, he returned to Imperial College and was eventually appointed as Professor of the college in 2003. As of 2017 he is Emeritus Professor of Computational Chemistry.[10][11]

His research interests

portmanteau word to better express the evolution from the documents produced by traditional academic publishing methods to the Semantic Web ideals expressed by Tim Berners-Lee.[13][14][15]

His contributions to chemistry

podcasting, for the introduction of the Chemical MIME types in 1994, and for organizing the ECTOC online conferences in organic chemistry, which ran from 1995-1998.[23]

Awards and honours

Rzepa was awarded the Herman Skolnik Award in 2012 by the American Chemical Society.[1]
