报告人简介：Miguel A. Garcia-Garibay received his B.S. degree (chemistry and pharmacy) from the University of Michoacan in Mexico and his Ph.D. degree from the University of British Columbia, where he graduated in 3 years with 18 peer reviewed articles published from his thesis work. He was a postdoctoral Fellow at Columbia University before joining the faculty at UCLA in 1992. He was promoted to full professor in 2001, served as Vice Chair for Education in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. He was chair of his Department from 2012 to 2016 and he is the current Dean of Physical Sciences at UCLA.  Garcia-Garibay has achieved international reputation for his work in solid-state organic chemistry, solid state reaction mechanisms, dynamics in crystals, and crystalline molecular machines. His current research efforts are aimed at the development of chemical process that occur in the solid state with great efficiency under the effects solar energy, without harmful additives, and with no solvents. He also works on the development of fluids for application in solar-thermal energy capture and on the design and construction of collective amphidynamic crystals and molecular machines. Garcia-Garibay has authored 190 articles published in peer-reviewed Journals, and 9 book chapters.  He has also given over 300 invited and plenary lectures worldwide.  He has been an Associate Editor of the Journal of the American Chemical Society since 2009, and he sits in the advisory boards of Crystal Growth and Design and The Journal of Organic Chemistry. He is a member of the Chemical Sciences Roundtable of the National Research Council. Garcia-Garibay has organized scientific workshops sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the American Association of the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the American Chemical Society (ACS), the Inter-American Photochemical Society (I-APS) and the Chemical Sciences Roundtable. Among other honors, he is a fellow of the American Association of the Advancement of Science, and he has been awarded an NSF Career Award, the American Competitiveness and Innovation Fellowship, an NSF Creativity Award, the 2013 Inter-American Photochemical Society Award in Photochemistry, and the 2015 ACS Cope Scholar Award.
