One of our academic legends, Thure Cerling, is retiring. Over the course of a career spanning five decades, the #UofU geoscientist has developed numerous forensic tools, such as isotope analysis, for understanding processes that impact life on Earth.
He is perhaps best known for exploiting the relative abundance of certain elemental isotopes as a way to date objects or determine where a person or animal lived or what they ate, earning him the moniker The IsoPope.

Eyring also developed the absolute rate theory, known as the Eyring equation, and is known for his seminal research on the theory of liquids, optical rotation, rate processes in biology and medicine, aging and cancer, and anesthesiology.
