Dr. Patrick J. Farmer has been awarded a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Chemistry. Dr. Farmer's doctoral degree was from Texas A&M University under the supervision of Professor Marcetta Darensbourg. Dr. Farmer will continue research at the California Institute of Technology under the sponsorship of Professor Harry Gray. Dr. Farmer's Postdoctoral training will provide him with bioinorganic expertise in metal-DNA interactions, cytochrome c oxidase, protein structure and function, metal porphyrin chemistry, and electron transfer through proteins. Longer term, he plans to synthesize well defined porphyrin ligand-metal systems in which the relative angle between donor and acceptor sites can be altered by bridging moieties. In this way, the directionality of electron transfer between ligand and metal sites can be determined. %%% The Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Chemistry Program is viewed as an important infrastructural program designed to broaden the knowledge and experience of new Ph.D.s and attract them into meaningful careers in contemporary chemical research and teaching.

Patrick J. Farmer 博士荣获化学博士后研究奖学金。 Farmer博士在德克萨斯A&M大学获得博士学位，师从Marcetta Darensbourg教授。法默博士将在哈里·格雷教授的资助下继续在加州理工学院进行研究。 Farmer 博士的博士后培训将为他提供金属-DNA 相互作用、细胞色素 C 氧化酶、蛋白质结构和功能、金属卟啉化学以及通过蛋白质的电子转移等方面的生物无机专业知识。从长远来看，他计划合成明确的卟啉配体-金属系统，其中供体和受体位点之间的相对角度可以通过桥接部分来改变。通过这种方式，可以确定配体和金属位点之间电子转移的方向性。 %%% 化学博士后研究奖学金项目被视为一项重要的基础设施项目，旨在拓宽新博士的知识和经验，并吸引他们从事当代化学研究和教学领域有意义的职业。
