Peter Rossky, professor of chemistry, is the first recipient of the American Chemical Society Physical Division Award in Theoretical Chemistry for his outstanding contributions to physical chemistry.
Rossky will be invited to present a plenary lecture at the Telluride School on Theoretical Chemistry during the summer, where he will receive the award. The Telluride Science Research Center, located in Colorado's Rocky Mountains, is dedicated to providing workshop and conference services for scientists around the world to inspire substantive scientific inquiry, breakthroughs, and discoveries.
Rossky’s research seeks to discover the fundamental molecular-level origins of chemical behavior in condensed phases, such as water’s influence on biological assembly, the mechanism of energy migration in polymers, and the factors controlling reaction rates in solution.
