Eric V. Anslyn (born June 9, 1960, Santa Monica, California) is an American chemist , University Distinguished Teaching Professor, and Welch Regents Chair in Chemistry at the University of Texas at Austin.[1] He previously held the Norman Hackerman ProfessorshipШаблон:Citation needed. Anslyn is co-author of Modern Physical Organic Chemistry, an introductory graduate textbook.[2]

Impact

Anslyn is notable for his work in developing designed receptors and sensor arrays by incorporating principal component analysis and discriminant analysis to mimic human taste and smell.[3][4][5] Prof. Anslyn developed a colorimetric sensor to distinguish flavonoids (hydrolysis products of tannins) between varietals of red wines. An analogous colorimetric sensor was developed to mimic human taste by positioning polymer microbeads on a silicon chip.Шаблон:Citation needed In related research, Prof. Anslyn designed a fluorometric chemical sensor consisting of a light-tight lego box and a smart phone to detect nerve agents such as VX and sarin.[6]

Awards

Anslyn received one of the American Chemical Society Arthur C. Cope Scholar Awards awarded in 2006 for his research in pattern recognition and supramolecular chemistry[7] and the Izatt-Christensen Award in Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry in 2013.[8]
