Dr. Geoffrey W. Coates has been awarded an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Chemistry. Dr. Coates received his doctoral degree from Stanford University under the supervision of Professor Robert Waymouth. Dr. Coates will continue research at the California Institute of Technology under the sponsorship of Professor Robert Grubbs. His postdoctoral research will target applications of chiral olefin metathesis catalysts in organic chemistry. In particular, he will concentrate on the development of chiral ruthenium-based carbene complexes and their application as catalysts for asymmetric synthesis. The development of new organometallic reagents and catalysts is important to the synthesis of new molecules of biological importance such as optically active helical complexes. The Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Chemistry Program is viewed as an important infrastructural program designed to broaden the knowledge and experience of new Ph. D.s and attract them into meaningful careers in contemporary chemical research and teaching.

Geoffrey W. Coates博士被授予NSF化学博士后研究奖学金。 科茨博士在罗伯特·韦茅斯（Robert Waymouth）教授的监督下获得了斯坦福大学的博士学位。 科茨博士将在罗伯特·格鲁布斯（Robert Grubbs）教授的赞助下继续在加利福尼亚理工学院的研究所继续研究。 他的博士后研究将针对手性烯烃分解催化剂在有机化学中的应用。 特别是，他将集中精力开发基于手性的碳基碳纤维络合物及其作为非对称合成的催化剂的应用。 新的有机金属试剂和催化剂的开发对于合成生物学重要性的新分子（例如光学活性螺旋络合物）很重要。 博士后研究奖学金的化学研究奖学金被视为一项重要的基础设施计划，旨在扩大新的博士学位的知识和经验，并吸引他们从事当代化学研究和教学中有意义的职业。
