摘要: Rod Rickards graduated with first class honours from the University of Sydney in 1955 and began his academic career at Manchester close association Arthur Birch. In 1966 he returned to Australia a foundation appointment Research School Chemistry Australian National University, where spent remainder career. His research was primarily concerned organic biological chemistry compounds medical, biological, agricultural veterinary importance, characterized by an integration synthesis, biomimetic structural stereochemical studies, biosynthetic studies using isotopically labelled precursors vivo. interests ranged widely included antibiotics, regulatory factors that initiate antibiotic production control cell differentiation sexuality microorganisms, elicitors communicate between bacteria plants, mammalian hormones prostaglandin group many aspects human physiology, juvenile hormones, which mediate development reproductive physiology higher dipteran insects therapeutically active components Cannabis resin.
