Abstract:
In the July issue of Applied Spectroscopy and in a mailing that was sent to all SAS members with information on electing the officers and governing board delegates to the Society an error appeared in the biography of governing board delegate nominee. Dr. Wolfgang Kiefer. The following is what should have appeared under Dr. Kiefer's name. We apologize for any inconvenience. Dr. Wolfgang Kiefer was educated at the University of Munich in Germany receiving both his Diploma in Physics in 1967 and his Ph.D. in Physics in 1970 from that institution. From 1970–1972, Dr. Kiefer served as a Postdoctorate Fellow at the National Research Council of Canada in the Division of Chemistry. From there he went to the University of Munich as Assistant in the Department of Physics. In 1977, Dr. Kiefer left the University of Munich to become Professor for Experimental Physics at the University of Bayreuth in Germany followed by Full Professor/Head of the Institute for Experimental Physics at the University of Graz in Austria. In 1988, he took a position as Full Professor for Physical Chemistry at the University of Würzburg in Germany. From 1996–1997 he served as Vice Dean of Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy at the University and from 1997–1999 as Dean of Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmacy. Dr. Kiefer has been involved in numerous national and international activities over the course of his career. These include European Editor (Molecular Spectroscopy) for the journal, Applied Spectroscopy, member of the Editorial board, Associate Editor and Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Member of the Editorial Boards of the Asian Journal of Physics, Spectroscopy Letters, Trends in Applied Spectroscopy, A sian Chemistry Letters, and Chemical Physics Letters. He has been a member of the IUPAC Commission for Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy, Director of a NATO Institute on Nonlinear Raman Spectroscopy, an Association of British Spectroscopists Lecturer, and a member of several Steering Committees. Dr. Kiefer was Chairman of the XIII International Conference on Raman Spectroscopy and he served as Chairman of the International Steering Committee for International Raman Conferences. He was Visiting Professor of Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Waseda University, Tokyo, Zhengzhou University, P.R. China and he is Honorary Professor of Wuhan University, P.R. China. Dr. Kiefer is also Honorary Member of the Advisory Board of the Committee on Light Scattering of the Chinese Physical Society, Honorary Fellow of the Laser and Spectroscopy Society of India (F.L.S.S.) and presently Foreign Councillor of the Institute for Molecular Science, Okazaki National Research Institutes, Japan. He is co-editor of five books and has published more than 500 papers. He was recently awarded the Society for Applied Spectroscopy's Distinguished Service Award for his contributions to SAS.
