This is the user page for Martin A. Walker, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at SUNY Potsdam. I am the conference chair for the NERM 2010 meeting.
I grew up in Newcastle Upon Tyne in the UK, and moved to the US in 1992. I married an American, Amy, in 1996 so I decided to stay on in the US. I now have two beautiful daughters, aged 4 and 9.
My interests are mainly in the area of organic synthesis, particularly green chemistry. I worked for 12 years in industry in the UK and the US, and this helps shape my view of process efficiency. I am also interested in Chemical information in general, and also Wikipedia. On Wikipedia I also coordinate the project for making offline releases of Wikipedia, known as Wikipedia 1.0; you can buy our 2007 test CD from wikipediaondvd.com. I would like one day to be able to perform research in exochemistry - it's out of this world!
