Andrew Ewing Presents 6th Annual Adams Lecture


KU's Chemistry Department welcomed its sixth Adams Lecturer on February 23rd, as Andrew Ewing, University of Gothenburg, Sweden, visited campus and gave a presentation on "“Electrochemistry and Mass Spectrometry Imaging of Nanometer Neurotransmitter Vesicles." Dr. Ewing was presented with a framed, commissioned caricature of Ralph "Buzz" Adams and a reception was held after his lecture with faculty and students.

The Ralph N. Adams Lectureship was established in 2017 to maintain cognizance of Dr. Adams's contributions as a scientist, mentor and humanitarian. The lectureship is jointly organized by KU's Department of Chemistry and the Adams Institute, and was made possible thanks to funding generously donated by two Adams research group alumni, Donald W. Leedy and Theodore Kuwana.
