Congratulations to Professor Scott Snyder on receiving the 2009/2010 Eli Lilly Grantee Award. Each year for the past 40 years the Eli Lilly award has honored young synthetic organic chemists for their excellence in research. As one of the three awardees this year, Professor Snyder will receive a $100K research grant over two years and will present the results of his work at the Lilly Grantee Symposium, to be held in Indianapolis in 2012. Professor James Leighton was the last recipient from Columbia's chemistry department to receive the Lilly Grantee Award. You can read about the activities of Professor Snyder's research group on the group website.
