Bio:

David Dolphin was born in London in 1940 and for the next 5 years the city suffered the greatest damage in its long history. After high school education in London, he moved to the University of Nottingham where he received both his B.Sc, and Ph.D. degrees working with A.W. Johnson. Around this time Alan Johnson moved to Sussex; left with nowhere to go Dolphin moved to Harvard as a postdoctoral fellow with R.B. Woodward. After a further 8 years as a member of the Harvard chemistry department faculty, he left to take up his present position as associate professor at the University of British Columbia. The structure, synthesis, chemistry and biochemistry of porphyrins, vitamin B12, and related macrocycles continue to be the main focus of his research.
