Tak-Hang (Bill) Chan joined the Department of Chemistry in 1966 and has an international reputation in synthetic organic chemistry and organosilicon chemistry. The "Chan Rearrangement" has been added to the professional literature, and he is a pioneer of green chemistry. Chan has published over 250 scientific papers and co-authored three textbooks, created the first green chemistry course for undergraduates and mentored more than 80 graduate and postdoctoral students. He has also served as the chair of the Department of Chemistry, dean of the Faculty of Science and vice-principal (academic) of McGill.
