Biography

Gary F. Moore is an assistant professor in the School of Molecular Sciences at Arizona State University, a scientist in the Biodesign Institute Center for Applied Structural Discovery, and Guest Faculty at Berkeley Lab. He received his PhD from ASU under Ana L. Moore in 2009 then spent two years as a Camille and Henry Dreyfus Energy Fellow at Yale University working with Gary W. Brudvig and Robert H. Crabtree before starting an independent research career at Berkeley Lab. Gary currently teaches graduate and undergraduate level courses at ASU on photochemical energy conversion and leads the research efforts of the G. F. Moore Lab.  He enjoys coffee, chess, the art of synthetic chemistry and staying up late at Gordon Conferences.
