The Tetrahedron Prize for Creativity in Organic Chemistry for 2006 will be presented to Professor Hisashi Yamamoto at the Fall 2007 ACS National Meeting in Boston.

The Humboldt Research Award is given to scientists who have contributed fundamental discoveries, new theories, or insights that significantly impact their

own research area and also reach beyond their specialized field of research.

Earlier this year, Prof. Yamamoto already accepted the 2007 Japan Academy Prize. More information on all three prizes is also available at the Chicago Maroon, the independent student newspaper of the University of Chicago.
