This has been a memorable year in terms of professional recognition for P. Andrew Evans, chemistry and biochemistry.
Most recently, he was selected as one of three organic chemists to receive an Eli Lilly Grantee Award, and he will receive $15,000 a year for two years to support his research.
This spring, he was one of 20 outstanding, young scientists nationwide to be named a Camille Dreyfus Teacher Scholar. The $60,000 award is being used to enhance undergraduate research experiences in Evans' area of new transition metal catalyzed carbon bond forming relations.
He also received an award for excellence in research from Zeneca Pharmaceuticals, recognizing demonstrated abilities in scholarly research, and in 1997 was named an Outstanding Young Scholar by the Francis Alison Society at UD, an award given to a tenure-track, assistant professor who combines research and publication with teaching and curriculum.
Evans received his doctorate in synthetic organic chemistry from Cambridge University and was a NATO postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Texas in Austin before joining the UD faculty.
