COURSE DIRECTOR

Daniel G. Nocera - Henry Dreyfus Professor of Energy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Prof. Nocera is widely recognized as a leading researcher in renewable energy at the molecular level. He studies the basic mechanisms of energy conversion in biology and chemistry with primary focus in recent years on the photogeneration of hydrogen and oxygen from water. Prof. Nocera will enlist world experts in climate modeling, photovoltaics and catalysis.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This course is intended for professionals, educators, the public, and anybody concerned about this planet’s future. A college background in science (even at a general level) is expected. The course will develop principles from the ground up, and will be relatively self-contained, i.e., all principles will be developed within the course.
