Professor Parker obtained his BSc at University of Minnesota in 1960 and PhD at Stanford University in 1964. He then worked as Research Chemist and Senior Research Chemist at Dow Chemical Co. from 1964 to 1968. He then moved to University of Copenhagen and took a Lecturer position since 1971. After that, he held the Professor position at University of Lund in 1976 and then at University of Trondheim from 1977 to 1987. He has been a Professor at Utah State University since 1988. Professor Parker has published approximately 330 papers dealing mainly with Physical Organic Chemistry, including the chemistry of ion radicals and the application of electrochemical techniques in reactive intermediate chemistry. His most recent work is concerned with the mechanisms of the fundamental reactions in organic chemistry.
