Emeritus Professor F. Richard Keene Adjunct Professor of Chemistry, School of Pharmacy & Molecular Sciences, James Cook University, Australia and Department of Chemistry, University of Canterbury, New Zealand. Honorary Visiting Research Fellow, School of Chemistry & Physics, University of Adelaide Richard Keene is an acknowledged international authority on stereochemistry in coordination chemistry - and significantly, in the control of stereochemistry within polymetallic supramolecular assemblies - and has over the last decade has published widely on (i) its effect on intramolecular electron and energy transfer in such assemblies, and (ii) its influence on sequence- and structure-selectivity in the interaction of such complexes with nucleic acids, and their cytotoxicity to cancer cells and bacteria. He has over 160 publications (h-index 44), as well 6 chapters in monographs and a patent. See less
