Angela K. Wilson

Angela K. Wilson is Regents Professor of computational chemistry at the University of North Texas, Director of the Center for Advanced Scientific Computing and Modeling (CASCaM), and Associate Vice Provost for Faculty.^[1] She is joining the faculty of Michigan State University in February 2016 as the John A. Hannah Chair of Chemistry, and will be joining the National Science Foundation as the Chemistry Division Director in March 2016.

Career

Wilson received her Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota and worked as a post-doctoral fellow at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. She is the University of North Texas' first winner of an NSF CAREER award,^[2][3] the agency’s top honor for junior faculty.

Dr. Angela Wilson is or has been a member of the Editorial Advisory Boards of the Journal of Physical Chemistry (JPC), International Journal of Quantum Chemistry,Computational and Theoretical Chemistry, and Scientific Reports, and is Editor of Computational and Theoretical Chemistry. She is a Fellow of the American Chemical Society, American Physical Society, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. She is the 2015 recipient of the Francis P. Garvan-John M. Olin Medal of the American Chemical Society.

She has edited three books including "Pioneers of Quantum Chemistry".
