Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Jeremy R. Knowles and Otto Solbrig, Bussey professor of biology, recently won accolades for their achievements in science.
Knowles was awarded the Nakanishi Prize by the American Chemical Society and Solbrig received the International Prize for Biology earlier this month.
"I am, of course, both surprised and honored to be awarded the Nakanishi Prize, for it relates to my earlier life before the Deanship," Knowles said in a recent e-mail message.
Gregory L. Verdine, professor of chemicalbiology, said he counted Knowles as a personalmentor during his assistant professorship atHarvard and praised his academic work.
"Knowles has made very profound contributionsthat shake the scientific world to the core--theway people look at certain really importantproblems," Verdine said.
