B.Sc., St. Mary's University, Halifax
Ph.D., University of Toronto, Toronto
Department: Chemistry

Office: ChB 310A
Email: kbaines2@uwo.ca
Our research interests centre on the synthesis of new compounds of novel
structure containing silicon and/or germanium, particularly dimetallenes
and metallylenes, on the investigation of the reactivity of these species,
and the development of applications of this chemistry. This area of research
has a significant impact on the field of reactive intermediates in both
organosilicon and organogermanium chemistry and also has implications
in the field of inorganic polymers, Si-based ceramics and in the surface
chemistry of Si-Ge alloys.

Biography of Duncan H. Hunter
I was born and raised in Edmonton where I went to the University of
Alberta and obtained my B.Sc. (Honors) in Chemistry. I then went to
UCLA for my Ph.D. with Donald J. Cram (Nobel Laureate in Chemistry)
followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at the California Institute of
Technology. I then joined the Chemistry Department at Western where
I have remained. While at Western I have been the Associate Dean of
Science, Academic, the Acting Chair of the Chemistry Department and
currently I am Associate Dean of Science, Research. Throughout this
time I have taught a wide variety of chemistry courses from first year
courses to graduate courses. Presently, I am teaching introductory organic
chemistry for chemistry majors, Chemistry 253 (http://instruct.uwo.ca/chemistry/253/)
I have had two sabbatical leaves both in France. On the first of these
I worked with Sir Derek Barton (Nobel Laureate in Chemistry) and the
second was spent at a research institute devoted to the development
of imaging agents for nuclear medicine. It is this area in which I am
currently supervising three graduate students. Check out http://www.uwo.ca/chem/Thunterd.htm
for more details.

Dr. Fred Longstaffe
Department: Earth Sciences &Fac of Science
Phone: 661-2111 x83177, 661-3041 x80304, 661-3041 x83041
Office: Office: BGS 63, WSC 191
Email: flongsta@uwo.ca
Fred J. Longstaffe joined Western’s Department of Geology in 1987,
coming from the University of Alberta, where he had been a professor
since 1979. In 1993, he was appointed the first Chair of Western’s Department
of Earth Sciences, which was created through amalgamation of the former
Departments of Geology and Geophysics. Fred was appointed Dean of Science
at Western in 1999. He was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada
in 1997. Dr. Longstaffe teaches undergraduate and graduate interdisciplinary
courses on the isotopic behaviour of natural systems. His research focuses
on the the use of stable isotopes to understand interactions among Earth’’s
atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere. Recent studies include
continental climate change, controls on the distribution of hydrocarbon
deposits, generation of greenhouse gases in freshwater wetlands, and
the stable isotope biogeochemistry of plants. Fred is Director of Western’s
Laboratory for Stable Isotope Science, which was recently awarded $1.5
million from the Canada Foundation for Innovation and the Ontario Innovation
Trust to renew its equipment.
