Bio:

• SIGGRAPH 1998

  Dr. Richard Gillilan received his PhD in Theoretical Chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania in 1988 studying nonlinear dynamical phenomena in surface diffusion. He continued his work at Cornell University as a postdoctoral associate in the Chemistry department. In 1990, Dr. Gillilan moved to the University of California San Diego as a Postgraduate Research Chemist in the laboratory of Kent Wilson. While working on solution-phase reaction dynamics, reaction-path calculation strategies and quantum control theory, he developed an interest in scientific visualization and animation production. Dr. Gillilan has been a Research Scientist and Visualization Specialist at the Cornell Theory Center since 1992. He specializes in animation production and virtual reality in chemistry, molecular biology and biophysics.
