Nobel Prize winner Arieh Warshel gives lecture at UCLA

Arieh Warshel, who won the 2013 Nobel Prize in chemistry, presented a free, public seminar on Monday called “Multiscale Modeling of Complex Biological Systems and Processes.”

Warshal and two other scientists were presented the award last year for their work in “the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems.”

The event was part of UCLA’s physical chemistry seminar series and was sponsored by the UCLA Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and by the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA.

Warshel is currently a professor of chemistry at the University of Southern California.
