Bert Weckhuysen receives this year’s Kozo Tanabe Prize for Acid-Base Catalysis. The prize was initiated by the International Acid-Base Catalysis Group and bears the name of Kozo Tanabe, who pioneered many of the modern concepts in catalytic chemistry of acids and bases.
Weckhuysen will receive the prize next month during the International Symposium on Acid-Base Catalysis in Rio de Janeiro, where he is also invited to give a plenary lecture about his research.
