Welcome to the Thomas C. Bruice Research Group

 

Located on the campus of the University of California, Santa Barbara, our research group specializes in both computational and synthetic bioorganic chemistry. On the following pages you'll find information about our research, current and past, a complete listing of all publications, and a section about the group members and their research interests.

Dr. Bruice's Biographical Page contains his professional positions as well as honors and awards.

Selected publications are available for download in PDF-format (these are indicated by a PDF-link and will open a new window). In order to view the selected papers you will need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. This site has been designed for both 800x600 and 1024x768 monitor resolutions (with more than 256 colors) and is best viewed using Internet Explorer.
