Charles P. Casey received his early education in St. Louis, Missouri (B.S. in chemistry, St. Louis University, 1963). His graduate research with George M. Whitesides at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology (MIT) was on organocopper compounds. After receiving his Ph.D. in 1967, he spent several months at Harvard University as a National Science Foundation (NSF) fellow in the laboratories of Paul D. Bartlett. In 1968, he joined the faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where he is now Homer B. Adkins Professor of Chemistry and Steenbock Professor in the Physical Sciences. He was department chair at Wisconsin from 1998 to 2001. He was President of the American Chemical Society (ACS) in 2004. 

Hydroxyphenylazobenzoic acid (HABA) is another general-purpose matrix. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology noted that the ion yield decreases rather slowly as the number of laser shots increases (the decrease in ion yield is faster for other matrices). HABA has a low threshold (for instance, it requires at least 20% less energy than 2,5-DHB). This property turned out to be very important when a poly(siloxane) was fractionated by SEC and high mass fractions with... 

R B Woodward was one of the leading organic chemists of the middle part of the twenti eth century Known pnmanly for his achievements in the synthesis of complex natural products he was awarded the Nobel Pnze in chemistry in 1965 He entered Massachusetts Institute of Tech nology as a 16 year old freshman in 1933 and four years later was awarded the Ph D While a student there he earned out a synthesis of estrone a female sex hormone The early stages of Woodward s estrone synthesis required the conversion of m methoxybenzaldehyde to m methoxy benzyl cyanide which was accomplished in three steps...

Note that the group on the left side of Eq. (14-182) is dimensionless. When turbulence promoters are used at the inlet-gas seclion, an improvement in gas mass-transfer coefficient for absorption of water vapor by sulfuric acid was obsei ved by Greenewalt [Ind. Eng. Chem., 18, 1291 (1926)]. A falhug off of the rate of mass transfer below that indicated in Eq. (14-182) was obsei ved by Cogan and Cogan (thesis, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1932) when a cauTiiug zone preceded the gas inlet in ammonia absorption (Fig. 14-76). 

A comparison of experimental data for carbon dioxide absorption obtained oy Hatta anci Katori (op. cit.), Grimley [Trans. Inst. Chem. Eng., 23, 228 (1945)], and Vyazov [Zh. Tekh. Fiz.

University of Delaware, 1949), Miller (B.S. thesis. University of Delaware, 1949), and Richards (B.S. thesis. University of Delaware, 1950) was made by Shei wood and Pigford (Absorption and Extraction, McGraw-Hill, New York, 1952) and is indicated in Fig. 14-78.

James Mason Crafts (1839-19171 was bo 1 n in Boston, Massachusetts, and graduated from Harvard in 1858, Although he did not receive a Ph D., he studied with eminent chemists in Europe for several years and was appointed in 1868 as the firs professor of chemistry at the newly founded Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Ithaca winters proved too seve-e, however, and he soon moved to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he served as president from 1897 to 1900.

Figure 36-4. Illustration of the tight correlation between the presence of RNA polymerase II and RNA synthesis. A number of genes are activated when Chirono-mus tentans larvae are subjected to heat shock (39 °C for 30 minutes). A Distribution of RNA polymerase II (also called type B) in isolated chromosome IV from the salivary gland (at arrows). The enzyme was detected by immunofluorescence using an antibody directed against the polymerase. The 5C and BR3 are specific bands of chromosome IV, and the arrows indicate puffs. B Autoradiogram of a chromosome IV that was incubated in H-uridine to label the RNA. Note the correspondence of the immunofluorescence and presence of the radioactive RNA (black dots). Bar = 7 pm.

Born in 1965 in Utrecht, the Netherlands, Marjolein van der Meulen received her Bachelors degree in mechanical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1987. Thereafter, she received her MS (1989) and PhD (1993) from Stanford University. She spent three years as a biomedical engineer at the Rehabilitation R D Center of the Department of Veterans Affairs in Palo Alto, CA. In 1996, Marjolein joined the faculty of Cornell University as an Assistant Professor in the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. She is also an Assistant Scientist at the Hospital for Special Surgery, New York. She received a FIRST Award from the National Institutes of Health in 1995 and a Faculty Early Career Development Award from the National Science Foundation in 1999. Her scientific interests include skeletal mechanobiology and bone structural behavior.
