Biographical Sketch

 

Prof. Tim Lodge

 

Tim Lodge was born in Manchester UK in 1954 and emigrated to the US in 1968. After graduating from Harvard in 1975 with a B.A. cum laude in Applied Mathematics he began graduate research in Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin working with Professor John Schrag. Following his PhD completed in December of 1980 Tim spent 20 months as a National Research Council Postdoctoral Fellow at NIST collaborating with Dr. Charles Han. Since 1982 he has been on the Chemistry faculty at Minnesota and was promoted to Associate Professor in 1988 and Professor in 1991. In 1995 he also became a Professor of Chemical Engineering & Materials Science. He was named a McKnight Distinguished University Professor in 2001 an Institute of Technology Distinguished Professor in 2004 and the Lloyd H. Reyerson Professor of Chemistry in 2007.

He was co-recipient of the 1993 George Taylor Alumni Award for excellence in research given by the Institute of Technology and in 1994 he was named a Fellow of the American Physical Society. He received the Arthur K. Doolittle Award from the Polymeric Materials Science & Engineering Division of the American Chemical Society in 1998. He was a co-recipient of the Society of Rheology Publication Award in 2003 and in 2004 he received the Polymer Physics Prize from the American Physical Society and the Paul Flory Research Award from POLYCHAR.

From 1994-2000 Tim served as Regional Editor for Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics and since 2001 he has been the Editor of the ACS journal Macromolecules. He is currently serving or has served on the Editorial Boards for Macromolecules Journal of Chemical Physics Journal of Polymer Science Polymer Physics Edition International Journal of Polymer Analysis and Characterization Critical Reviews in Analytical Chemistry Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics and Polymer. He has served as Chair of the Division of Polymer Physics American Physical Society (1997-8) and as Chair of the Gordon Research Conferences on Colloidal Macromolecular and Polyelectrolyte Solutions (1998) and Polymer Physics (2000). He served on the Council of the American Physical Society from 2001-2006 and as a Member-at-Large on the Executive Committee of the Society of Rheology from 2003-2007. He has been a visiting professor at Kyoto University Universität Mainz the University of California at Santa Barbara and the University of Leeds. He has authored or co-authored over 220 refereed articles in the field of polymer science and advised or co-advised over 45 PhD students. His research interests center on the structure and dynamics of polymer liquids including solutions melts blends and copolymers with particular emphases on rheology diffusion scattering and microscopy techniques.
