Barry Sharpless has pioneered an approach to this endeavor that frees the investigator from difficulties of chemical synthesis, the better to focus on the desired function. Known as \u0026ldquo;click chemistry,\u0026rdquo; this approach has been adopted by scientists in diverse fields from biochemistry to materials. Prof. Sharpless will describe his latest additions to click chemistry methods, as well as the motivating concepts that have guided this revolution in the molecular sciences and engineering.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe 2001 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry,\u0026nbsp;Sharpless will discuss the latest in click chemistry methods for making functional molecular connections with speed \u0026amp; ease\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Nobel Laureate will discuss the value of \u0022click chemistry\u0022"}],"uid":"27299","created_gmt":"2017-01-04 21:15:59","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:13:28","author":"Michael Hagearty","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2017-01-09T16:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2017-01-09T17:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2017-01-09T17:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2017-01-09 21:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2017-01-09 22:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2017-01-09 22:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.scripps.edu\/sharpless\/index.html","title":"The Sharpless Lab at Scripps Research Institute"}],"groups":[{"id":"1182","name":"General"},{"id":"1278","name":"College of Sciences"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ESue Winters\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:sue@gatech.edu\u0022\u003Esue@gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
