1 A very productive professor 64 students graduated from his lab 94 postdocs have worked in his lab Education Experience Fraser Fleming University of Drexel Pavel agory University of Michigan Cambridge University, B.A University of itish Columbia, M.c Massachusetts nstitute of Technology, Ph.D (with G. Büchi). Professional Experience nstructor, arvard University, Assistant Professor, arvard University, Rich Carter Mitchell Avery Associate Professor, arvard University, University of Mississippi regon tate University Associate Professor, regon tate University, Professor, regon tate University, Distinguished Professor, regon tate University, Distinguished Professor Emeritus, regon tate University, 2003-present. A very stubborn total synthesis professor More than 60 natural products (including analogues) have been synthesized in 43 years, no more than 36 methodology papers have Alexandre Yokochi Xuegong he been published (just for fun?) regon tate University Lanzhou University
