| Secretary Lee Brammer  Associate Professor of Inorganic Chemistry, University of Missouri-St. Louis, St. Louis, MO Education: B.Sc. Hons. in Chemistry, University of Bristol. Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry, University of Bristol. NATO Postdoctoral Fellow, University of New Orleans. Postdoctoral Fellow, Brookhaven National Laboratory. Professional Activities: Member ACA, ACS. Co-Editor, Acta Crystallographica, 96-present. Member of US National Committee for Crystallography, (98-00). Local Chair of St. Louis ACA Meeting, 97. Organizer of ACA Transactions Symposium on "Structural Tools in Organometallic and Coordination Chemistry" at Montreal ACA Meeting, 95; Editor of Vol. 31 of Trans. Am. Crystallogr. Assoc. Chair of 99 Patterson Award Committee. Member of ACA Crystallographic Data and Computing Committee, (96-98) (Chair, 98). Co-organizer of American Chemical Society symposium on "Hydrogen Bonds in Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry," at 98 Fall national meeting. Research Interests: organometallic and coordination chemistry; transition metals in supramolecular chemistry; crystal engineering; metal-hydrogen interactions; hydrogen bonding; intermolecular interactions; electron densities; X-ray & neutron diffraction. Statement: The role of the ACA Secretary is two-fold. The first is administrative, taking minutes, organizing various reports, etc. The second is as a member of the ACA Council, which guides the ACA. I believe that my experience of the operation of the ACA over the past few years in various scientific and organizational capacities should allow me to do an effective job if elected as Secretary. My crystallographic research interests involve various aspects of small-molecule crystallography (see above) and I have roots in the chemical as well as the crystallographic community. However, I take a broad interest in all areas of crystallography, and strongly believe that a good balance of crystallographic emphasis areas is vital to the health and future of the ACA. I have experience with crystallographic databases and national facilities for crystallographic research and am regularly involved in teaching crystallography to chemistry students. Overall, I feel that I can bring a valuable perspective to the ACA Council and make an effective contribution to the ACA across a range of topics. |

Member of ACA, ACS, Pittsburgh Diffraction Society, AAAS, Protein Society, American Peptide Society. Research Interests: Small molecule crystallography, methods of crystal growth, structure-activity relationships of biologically important small molecules, crystal engineering, and macromolecular crystallography. Statement: The members of the ACA have been a valuable source of learning and inspiration to me as a crystallographer. I am pleased to accept the nomination for Secretary of the ACA, and volunteer my services to the ACA in an attempt to thank those who have helped me. If elected I will strive to do my best to fulfill the duties of this position. By my actions, I would also like to encourage the new-generation of crystallographers to get involved in the ACA by serving on committees and participating in the annual meetings. |
