Abstract

It is our pleasure to introduce this Festschrift of The Journal of Physical Chemistry A to honor Professor Leo Radom on the occasion of his 75th birthday and to recognize his many outstanding contributions to the field of theoretical and computational chemistry. Leo was born in Shanghai in 1944. His family moved to Sydney, Australia, in 1947. Following his BSc in Chemistry at the University of Sydney, he obtained his PhD in experimental physical organic chemistry in 1969 with Raymond Le Fevre. Leo then turned to theory during a ̀ postdoctoral period with John Pople at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh. He returned to Australia in 1972 to the Research School of Chemistry at the Australian National University and then moved to the University of Sydney in 2003, where he is now an Emeritus Professor of Chemistry.
