Prof. Snydergrew up in the suburbs of Buffalo, NY, where his interests in chemistry were forged in high school by a variety of research experiences and an opportunity to attend the National Study Camp for the International Chemistry Olympiad. He then pursued his undergraduate studies in chemistry at Williams College in MA, where he obtained the bachelor degree with highest honors. In 1999, he began his graduate studies with Prof. K. C. Nicolaou at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, CA. In2004, he was trained as a NIH postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Prof. E. J.

Last month, he relocated to the University of Chicago as a Full Professor.

Prof. Snyder’sgroup is well known for the elegant synthesis of diverse polyphenolic and alkaloid natural products as well as the development of several new reagents that have enabled access to a diverse array of halogenated molecules. He is the recipientofnumerous awards and honors including the Arthur C. Cope Scholar Award from the ACS (2011), an Alfred P.
