About the Author
William Ogilvie is an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Ottawa. He was an NSERC 1967 Scholar who received his PhD from the University of Ottawa in 1989. Following this, he was an NSERC postdoctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania and at the Scripps Research Institute. In 1990, he joined Boehringer-lngelheim Pharmaceuticals (then BioMega) in Montreal, working as a research scientist, and spent 11 years in the industry before moving to uOttawa. His teaching focus has been organic and medicinal chemistry, and he has also taught large classes of science for non-scientists. He was awarded the Excellence in Education Prize by the University of Ottawa in 2006.
Nathan Ackroyd is an associate professor of Chemistry and a faculty member at Mount Royal University in Calgary. He has always been interested in how the world works as it does. Trying to find detailed answers to broad questions led him to an early interest in chemistry and physics. After earning a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from Brigham Young University, he moved to the University of Illinois, where he focused on the organic synthesis of imaging agents to simplify the diagnosis of breast tumours. In addition to Organic Chemistry, Dr. Ackroyd teaches Biochemical Pharmacology and Drug Discovery for fourth-year biology students. Through these courses, he hopes to increase students’ understanding of how the chemicals we are made of interact with the chemicals we use every day.
Scott Browning is Senior Lecturer and a faculty member at the University of Toronto. His research interests are in chemical education, particularly scientific literacy and technology-based learning and instruction in post-secondary science education. Included in his research are best practices in science instruction―particularly as it relates to the role of technology in learning and teaching―and the involvement of undergraduates in meaningful current scientific research. At the intersection of these domains, he is also working with undergraduate students using higher level methods in computational chemistry to better understand molecular processes in both the biochemical and chemical realms. Dr. Browning is very involved in chemical education at the University of Toronto and across the province and in 2009 was the organizer of the Ontario Chemistry Olympiad.
Ghislain Deslongchamps is Professor and Chair of Chemistry at the University of New Brunswick. Upon joining the department, he quickly established a name for himself in the research field of molecular recognition. His research interests currently include organocatalysis, computer-assisted molecular design, and visualization in chemical education. He has always showed a strong commitment to teaching and how technology can help students learn more effectively. He has been recognized by Maclean’s magazine as one of UNB’s top professors. Developing new computer-based visualization techniques for chemical education since 2000, he is the creator of Organic Chemistry Flashware, published by Nelson Education. Dr. Deslongchamps is a past director of the SHAD program at UNB, Canada’s top summer enrichment program, which empowers exceptional high school students.
Felix Lee is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry at The University of Western Ontario. Dr. Lee is a two-time recipient of the University Student’s Council Award, The Bank of Nova Scotia Award, and Western Alumni Association Teaching Award, as well as a recipient of a Marilyn Robinson Award for Excellence in Teaching. As one student describes, “He has not only turned my most hated subject into my favourite; he has inspired me to do well in subsequent courses and life events.” According to another professor, “He is obviously recognized as an excellent teacher, and now he is helping the faculty by being a teacher’s teacher.” Dr. Lee has extensively been involved in the restructuring of first-year chemistry at The Uni
