Honorary Members of the Group

Dr. James N. Pitts Jr was an invaluable resource and mentor to the group members. His scientific wisdom affected the group long before it even existed. It was, in fact, a Russian translation of the book "Photochemistry" by Jack G. Calvert and James N. Pitts Jr. that inspired Sergey Nizkorodov to become a photochemist in undergraduate school. Dr. Pitts was behind our work on indoor air chemistry initiated by air purifiers. Dr. Pitts passed away in June 2014 leaving a giant legacy of work on the science of atmospheric photochemistry and air pollution. You can learn more about Dr. Pitts' fascinating biography from his 2007 interview article in the Spectrum and from a UCI School of Physical Sciences. Dear Jim, you will always be dearly missed! |
