| Fred W. McLafferty, received his BS (1943; U.S. Army, Purple Heart, Combat Infantry Badge, 5 Bronze Star Medals for valor, Presidential Unit Citation), and MS (1947) from the Univ. of Nebraska, PhD from Cornell, and postdoctorate at the Univ. of Iowa. At the Dow Chemical Co. he was in charge of mass spectrometry and gas chromatography (1950-6) and was the first Director of their Eastern Research Lab. for basic research. He moved in 1964 to Purdue and in 1968 to Cornell (Peter J. W. Debye Professor of Chemistry, Emeritus). He has been a mass spectrometry pioneer in such fields as gaseous ion reactions (McLafferty rearrangement), instrumentation (GC/MS, LC/MS, MS/MS), techniques (collisionally activated dissociation, neutralization-reionization, electron capture dissociation, IR photodissociation spectroscopy), computer data acquisition, reduction, and identification (Probability Based Matching), reference data (600K mass spectra), and high-resolution MS/MS characterization of biomolecules and gaseous protein conformers. He has co-authored/edited 500 publications, including Mass Spectrometry of Organic Ions (1963), Mass Spectral Correlations (1963, 1982), Interpretation of Mass Spectra (1966, 1973, 1980, 1993), Advances in Analytical Chemistry & Instrumentation (1966-75), Tandem Mass Spectrometry (1983), and Atlas-, Archives-, Registry-, and Important Peak Index of Mass Spectral Data (1969-2004). |  |
Professor Scott A. McLuckey, Purdue University , USA "Ion/Ion Electron Transfer Reactions: New Tools and New Insights." |
|
| Dr. Scott A. McLuckey earned his Ph.D. in 1982 from Purdue University in Analytical Chemistry. Directly following graduation from Purdue, he spent one year as a visiting scientist at the FOM Institute for Atomic and Molecular Physics in Amsterdam. In late 1983, he joined the Analytical Chemistry Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory as a Eugene P.Wigner Fellow, the most prestigious appointment that ORNL can bestow upon a beginning professional scientist. In January, 1990 he was named Head of the Analytical Spectroscopy Section, an organization comprised of five groups devoted to basic and applied research in analytical chemistry. During the period of time between the Section Head assignment and McLuckey's move to Purdue, he also led the Organic and Biological Mass Spectrometry Group within the section. In January, 2000, McLuckey moved to Purdue as a Professor of Chemistry within the Analytical Chemistry Division of the department. |  |
