Collections:JCE Digital Library:Biographical Snapshots

From ChemEd Collaborative

The primary objective of this Only@JCE Online column is to provide information about women and minority chemists who have made important contributions to chemistry. A short biographical "snapshot" of each chemist provides basic information about the person's chemical work, gender, ethnicity, and cultural background.

JCE Biographical Snapshots is a collection of such ‘Biographical Snapshots’.

1. A birthdate and deathdate(if applicable)
