Ad van der Avoird studied chemical engineering at the Technical University in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, from 1959 to 1964. From 1964 to 1967 he worked at the Battelle Institute in Geneva, Switzerland, and from 1967 to 1971 at the Unilever Research Laboratory in Vlaardin-gen, where in 1968 he became Head of the Molecular Physics section. In 1968 he obtained his Ph.D. degree at the Technical University in Eindhoven and in the same year he became Part-time Professor at the University of Nijmegen. In 1971 he became Full Professor of Theoretical Chemistry in Nijmegen. Since 1979 he is a member of the Netherlands Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) and since 1997 a member of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science.

The USSR values highly the scientific work of Ya. B. Zeldovich. He was elected a full member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, three times awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor (the highest Soviet award), and rewarded with many orders. Ya. B. Zeldovich is a Lenin Prize winner, and four times he was a winner of the State Prize of the USSR. He has been elected a foreign member of many academies in other countries The German Academy Leopoldina, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the U. S. National Academy of Sciences (Cambridge, USA), the Royal Society (London), and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. 

Methods, the ACS Arthur C. Cope Award, and the Paul Karrer Gold Medal. He is a Fellow of the National Academy of Science, the American Academy of Arts and Science, and the Royal Society of Chemistry. In his Nobel Lecture [163], he conceded that starting from seemingly unrelated work, our investigations into the fundamental chemistry of this transformation have been an exciting journey, with major advances often resulting from complete surprises, mistakes, and simple intuition. Ultimately, these efforts have contributed to olefin metathesis becoming the indispensable synthetic tool that it is today .

Thackray s scholarly interests lie in the historiography of science and in understanding technology, medicine, and science as elements of modern culture. He served as editor of Isis, the official journal of the History of Science Society, for seven years, and as editor of the society s newer journal, Osiris, for ten years. He has been active in the public life of scholarship, serving on a number of boards, including that of the American Council on Education, and is a former president of the Society for Social Studies of Science and was treasurer of the American Council of Learned Societies for more than a decade. Thackray is a fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Royal Historical Society, and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was founding director, and now serves as president, of the Chemical Heritage Foundation.
