The 2024 National Fresenius Award recipient is Professor Jeffrey Dick, the Richard B. Wetherill Associate Professor of Chemistry at Purdue University. Research in the Dick seeks to understand how chemistry changes under confinement and how nature takes advantage of this difference for the genesis and propagation of life by developing new measurement tools and instrumentation. Their team develops new instrumentation to make these measurements, with a particular emphasis on electrochemistry, which offers unmatched spatiotemporal resolution. https://www.nanoelectrochemistry.com/
