The Dyson Perrins Laboratory is in the science area of the University of Oxford and was the main centre for research into organic chemistry of the University from its foundation in 1916 until its closure as a laboratory in 2003. It was founded with an endowment from Charles Dyson Perrins, heir to the Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce company, and stands on the north side of South Parks Road in Oxford. ==Notable chemists== The heads of the laboratory were the four consecutive Waynflete Professors of Chemistry: # William Henry Perkin, Jr., from 1912 to 1929; # Sir Robert Robinson, from 1930 to 1954. Nobel Prize winner, 1947; # Sir Ewart Jones, from 1954 to 1978; # Sir Jack Baldwin, from 1978 to 2003. During its 87-year working life, the laboratory had an extremely distinguished career; it can claim a stake in shaping the scientific careers of two Nobel Laureates, namely Lord Todd (1957) and Sir John W. Cornforth (1975) who passed their formative years as young chemists in the laboratories. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dyson Perrins Laboratory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
