Gabor A. Somorjai was born in Budapest, Hungary, on May 4, l935. He was a fourth year student of Chemical Engineering at the Technical University in Budapest in l956 at the outbreak of the Hungarian Revolution. He left Hungary and emigrated to the United States, where he received his Ph.D. degree in Chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley in l960. He became a U.S. citizen in l962. After graduation, he joined the IBM research staff in Yorktown Heights, New York, where he remained until l964. At that time, he was appointed Assistant Professor of Chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley. In l967, he was named Associate Professor, and in l972 promoted to Professor. Concurrent with his faculty appointment, he is also a Faculty Senior Scientist in the Materials Sciences Division, and Group Leader of the Surface Science and Catalysis Program at the Center for Advanced Materials, at the E.O. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Professor Somorjai has educated more than 115 Ph.D. students and 200 postdoctoral fellows. He is the author of more than 750 scientific papers in the fields of surface chemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, and solid state chemistry. He has written three textbooks, Principles of Surface Chemistry, Prentice Hall, l972; Chemistry in Two Dimensions: Surfaces, Cornell University Press, 1981; and Introduction to Surface Chemistry and Catalysis, Wiley-Interscience, 1994; and a monograph, Adsorbed Monolayers on Solid Surfaces, Springer-Verlag, l979. His honors include the following: 2007 Langmuir Prize from the American Physical Society 2006 Remsen Award from the Maryland Section of the ACS Honorary Fellow, Cardiff University 2003 UCB College of Chemistry Commencement Address Cotton Medal, Texas A&M University Docteur Honoris Causa, ETH Zurich, Switzerland 2002 National Medal of Science Appointed University Professor of the 10 campuses of the University of California 2001 Docteur Honoris Causa, University of Manchester, United Kingdom 2000 American Chemical Society Award for Creative Research in Homogeneous or Heterogeneous Catalysis Linus Pauling Medal for Outstanding Accomplishment in Chemistry, American Chemical Society, Puget Sound, Portland and Oregon Section Docteur Honoris Causa, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden 1999 Docteur Honoris Causa, József Attila University, Szeged, Hungary 1998 Wolf Prize in Chemistry, Wolf Foundation Docteur Honoris Causa, Università degli Studi di Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy 1997 Von Hippel Award, Materials Research Society 1995 Chemical Pioneer, American Institute of Chemists 1994 Adamson Award in Surface Chemistry, American Chemical Society 1992 Docteur Honoris Causa, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium 1990 Honorary Membership in Hungarian Academy of Sciences Docteur Honoris Causa, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France 1989 Peter Debye Award in Physical Chemistry, American Chemical Society Senior Distinguished Scientist Award, Alexander von Humboldt Foundation E.W.

Douglas Osheroff was born and raised in Aberdeen, Washington, a logging town in the Pacific Northwest. There he attended public schools. He did his undergraduate work at Caltech, receiving his B.S. in physics in 1967. His graduate work was done at Cornell University, where his Ph.D. thesis work resulted in the discovery of three superfluid phases of liqud 3He. These phases are neutral analogs to the superconductors, but with greater complexity in their order. Leaving Cornell in the fall of 1972, he spent the next fifteen years in the physical research division at AT&T Bell Laboratories, the last six as the head of their Low Temperature and Solid State Research Department. Here, in collaboration, he worked on studies of the newly discovered superfluid phases of liquid 3He, the nature of nuclear spin order in solid 3He, and made the first observations of weak localization in thin disordered metallic films. In 1987 he came to Stanford University, where he is the J.G. Jackson and C.J. Wood Professor of Physics and the Gerhard Casper University Fellow for Undergraduate Education. Here his research still focuses on the properties of condensed matter near the absolute zero of temperature. He has also served as chair of the Physics Department at Stanford from 1993-96, and again from 2001-04. In 2003 Osheroff served as a member on the Columbia Accident Investigation Board, which determined the causes of the accident that led to the destruction of Space Shuttle Columbia during re-entry on 1 February, 2003. Osheroff has received numerous awards for his research. These include the Sir Francis Simon Memorial Award, the Oliver E. Buckley Condensed Matter Physics Prize, the MacArthur Prize Fellowship Award, and the 1996 Nobel Prize for Physics. In 1991 Stanford University gave him their Walter J. Gores Award for Excellence in Teaching. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences. Douglas and his wife Phyllis enjoy classical music, hiking and photography. |
