Harry L. Anderson, FRS, is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Oxford and Professorial
Fellow of Keble College, Oxford. He is known internationally for his insightful contributions to the design and synthesis of supramolecular materials and molecular wires. He has introduced new concepts for molecular design and ground-breaking approaches to template-directed synthesis, leading to materials with unprecedented electronic and nonlinear optical characteristics. Professor Anderson studied chemistry at the University of Oxford, where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree. He continued his studies under Jeremy Sanders at the University of Cambridge, where he received his doctorate. He started his independent research as a research fellow at Magdalene College, Cambridge, and conducted research at ETH-Zürich, Switzerland as a SERC postdoctoral research fellow. He returned to the University of Oxford and became a Professor of Chemistry in 2004. His many honors include the Izatt-Christensen Award, election as a Fellow of the Royal Society, Merck-Karl Pfister Visiting Professor in Organic Chemistry at MIT, and Royal Society of Chemistry Award for Supramolecular Chemistry, among others.
