Dr. Karl Wallace
Professor
Bio
Dr. Wallace is an American-British chemist who received his PhD from King’s College London in 2003 (inorganic and supramolecular chemistry). He then moved to Austin, TX, to pursue post-doctoral studies at the University of Texas at Austin (physical-organic and supramolecular chemistry) In 2006, Dr. Wallace started his independent career at the University of Â鶹´«Ã½ as an Assistant Professor, working his way through the ranks and becoming a professor in 2020. Over the years, his research has been funded by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Defense. Outside of chemistry, Dr. Wallace likes to homebrew, cook (especially BBQ), and Garden.
