Professor Bradley Holliday awarded 2009 National Science Foundation CAREER Award

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is proud to announce that Professor Bradley Holliday is a recipient of the 2009 National Science Foundation CAREER Award. The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program offers the National Science Foundation's most prestigious awards in support of junior faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through outstanding research, excellent education and the integration of education and research within the context of the mission of their organizations.

Professor Holliday's research is in the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of hybrid materials that incorporate luminescent metal complexes into polymer backbones. A cooperative relationship is obtained from the conductive polymers, which can readily shuttle charge, and the luminescent metal complexes, which offer the advantages of sharp emission properties (lanthanides), synthetic color tuning (iridium and platinum materials), and higher potential efficiencies.
