Anthony W. Addison, PhD
Professor Emeritus
Department of Chemistry
Education:
- BSc, (Hons-I), University of New South Wales, 1968
- PhD, University of Kent at Canterbury, 1971
- Postdoctoral Fellow, Northwestern University, 1970-72
- Assistant Professor, University of British Columbia, 1972-78
- Associate Professor, Drexel University, 1978-1991
- Professor, Drexel University, 1991– present
Research Interests:
Design, synthesis and properties of novel chelating agents and of macrocyclic and oligonuclear metal complexes. Bioinorganic chemistry of metalloproteins, models for various properties of Fe, Cu, Ni and V centres in O2-transporting and redox proteins. Electrochemistry, CD, EPR and magnetic properties of extended and molecular systems for thermal & photostimulated energy- and electron-transfer.
Addison has published numerous papers in the areas of metalloprotein chemistry, the chemistry of non-macromolecular active-site models of metalloproteins, and the design of novel redox-active and photoactive complexes. He maintains active collaborations with x-ray crystallographic and other research groups in the U.S. and Ukraine. Of these active collaborations Addison says, "Classical biochemistry is acceding to the reality that a large number of physiologically important biological macromolecules owe their functional activity to the presence of one or more metal ions in their structures. We are engaged in synthesis of ‘unnatural' molecules, whose behaviors are designed to reveal to us clues about the action of metal ions in such biological structures. Their roles include energy transfer or electron transfer over long distances."

Bio:
Paul Gondek is a visiting research professor in the Department of Chemistry in the College of Arts and Sciences, and Adjunct Teaching Professor in the Dornsife Office of Experiential Learning of LeBow College of Business at Drexel University. In the chemistry department Paul is a member of the team that is developing the Graduate Minor in Creative Interdisciplinary Research, including the two courses “Creative Interdisciplinary Team Research: Principles and Practice” (offered Winter 2017-2018 as GRAD T-580), and “Enhancing the Creativity of a Major Research Idea.” At LeBow Paul teaches courses in consulting process and practice at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Paul is also a Mentor in the Global Engagement Scholars program from the Office of International Programs.
Paul is a Drexel alumnus who earned a BS in Psychology/Sociology/Anthropology from the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (now part of CoAS) in 1974. He earned MA and PhD degrees in social psychology from the University of Connecticut, and an MS in statistics also from UConn, all by 1979. His psychology research was in the area of experimental social psychophysiology. He did post-doctoral work at Western Psychiatric Institute of the University of Pittsburgh where he was the analytic member of a team studying the effects of the Three Mile Island nuclear accident on the mental health of residents of the area, one of the first applications of post-traumatic stress disorder thinking to a non-conflict situation.
Following his post-doctoral work, Paul entered industry where he held positions of increasing responsibility in market research, marketing and new product development in several major corporations before founding his own consulting company. Paul spent more than 20 years in consulting, working for his own company and major global consulting companies, before beginning to teach at Drexel.
Paul lives in Philadelphia and serves on the boards of organizations including: the Drexel University Alumni Association (Marketing, Honors and Awards, and Affinity Groups committees), the Drexel Alumni Swim and Dive committee, and the the Christian Street Branch of the Philadelphia Freedom Valley YMCA (Chair of the Annual Support Campaign and of Major Gifts, and member of the New Building committee).

Research Interests:
Significant advances in modern technology have enabled scientists to explore and comprehend nature at a level of detail never dreamed of. To continue this fast-paced progress, the development of novel strategic methodologies to address complex scientific questions is imperative. Equipped with interdisciplinary approaches, my research program is centered on developing novel analytical tools and sensors and exploiting their applications in the field of bioanalytical measurements. In particular, we have been working on coupling the novel properties of various nanomaterials with conventional analytical techniques to develop:
- a new sensing modality based on amplification-by-polymerization for POC DNA diagnostics
- a label-free multiplexed biomolecule detection platform based on a hybrid of encoded nanoparticles and conjugated fluorescent polymers
- a high resolution single particle imaging tool based on plasmon-enhanced circular dichroism
- nanofeatures-facilitated mass spectrometric techniques in tissue imaging and metabolite profiling
The overarching aims of our research is to introduce new means to monitor elementary biomolecular interactions with possible ramifications in field-friendly biomolecule screening and biomolecular-facilitated photocatalytic reactions.

Bio:
Monica Ilies has an extensive research background in bioorganic chemistry and chemical biology, and more than 17 years teaching experience at different universities, both in the United States and Europe. She published 25 scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals (>1300 citations in the research literature; h-index 19; i10-index 20), 1 book chapter, 1 undergraduate course and 4 laboratory manuals.
In 2010, she joined the Department of Chemistry at Drexel University, where she has been actively involved in the development and application of evidence-based teaching practices, such as clickers, muddiest point cards, "study-buddy", think-pair-share, small-group problem-solving, and partially flipped classroom and integrated content delivery in general, organic, and medicinal chemistry classes.
She has presented her pedagogical work at the American Chemical Society national meetings in the Division of Chemical Education. Since 2013 she has also been coordinating the general chemistry service courses (CHEM 101-102) and is currently a member of the national committee that will develop the standardized General Chemistry exam to be released in 2019. Her teaching philosophy revolves around a simple tripartite core: 1) we learn best when we do; 2) we understand the most when we teach; and 3) the most effective learning-teaching process is personalized.

Dionicio Martinez Solorio, PhD
Assistant Professor
Department of Chemistry
Education:
- Postdoctoral Fellow, University of Pennsylvania, 2011-2016
- PhD, University of Alabama, 2011
- BA, University of California, Santa Cruz, 2004
Research Interests:
Research in the Martinez Solorio Group is driven by the total synthesis of complex biologically active natural products which serve as inspirational platforms for the discovery and development of novel catalytic asymmetric reactions, synthetic methods, and reagents. Of paramount importance is the design of synthetic routes that are atom, step and redox economical which lead to more efficient syntheses and reduces chemical waste. This strategy naturally leads to the development of chemical transformations that may currently not exist but would find applications in chemical biology, medicine, and the design of novel functional materials. Our research group aims to improve the understanding of both, the mechanisms of action of natural products in biological systems, and novel chemical reactions via multidisciplinary biological and computational collaborations.
Total synthesis of natural products and methodology development provides an excellent educational opportunity to all post-graduate, graduate and undergraduate students for careers in academia and the pharmaceutical or chemical industry.
Bio:
Dionicio Martinez Solorio was born in Delano and raised in Wasco, California, the agricultural heartland of the Southern Central Valley. He earned a BA in Chemistry from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 2004 and a PhD in 2011 from the University of Alabama under the guidance of Michael P. Jennings. His graduate research focused on the total synthesis of natural products. In 2011, Dionicio moved to Philadelphia to pursue post-doctoral studies in the laboratory of Amos B. Smith, III at the University of Pennsylvania where he developed reusable silicon-based reagents for palladium-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation. In June 2016, Dionicio joined the faculty at Drexel where he is an assistant professor in the Department of Chemistry.
