Dr. Nina Berova Receives Chirality Medal

Nina Berova, Columbia Sr. Research Scientist who collaborates closely with Professor Koji Nakanishi, has been selected as the 17th recipient of the Chirality Medal, instituted by the Societa Chimica Italiana in 1991.  It honors an internationally recognized scientist who has made distinguished contributions to all aspects of chirality.  Nina is the second member of our Department to win this award, after Koji Nakanishi who was selected in 1995.  She is the first woman to be so awarded.
