35th Annual Adolph E. Waller Memorial Lecture
36 years have witnessed the establishment and development of Aldoph E. Waller Memorial Lecture. This year, on April 18th and 19th, we celebrate this annual festivity with Dr. Sabeeha Merchant. Dr. Merchant is a reputable professor from Biochemistry department of UCLA and she will discuss two informative and insightful topics about “Trace metal economy in photosynthesis: supply and demand, logistics and recycling” and “TAG, you're it! Basic science for algal biofuels”. With the attendance of the Waller family as well as excellent scientists and experts from related departments, we can foresee that the lectures will be full of productive thoughts, enlightening ideas and pleasant conversations.
