Description
The annual Camille and Henry Dreyfus Lectureship at the University of Basel, supported by the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation, brings leading U.S.-based scientists in chemistry and the chemical sciences to the University's campus. It memorializes the Dreyfus brothers, who both earned their PhDs at Basel: Camille in 1901 and Henry in 1905.
The lectureship aims to strengthen the relationship between Swiss and U.S. science through scientific presentations and direct interaction with the University community. Each visit combines a technical lecture for faculty and students with a second presentation for a broader audience, alongside time for exchanges with faculty and students.
