Notability[edit]

He is

board of directors for California NanoSystems Institute
Southern California Section of the American Chemical Society Tolman Medal
adjunct professor at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology

notability of the things he is

He member of a institute board, this is for sure not enough to get notable
A medal of a regional Chemical Society is also lacking the power to make him notable
adjunct professor is not notable only people holding a named chair or similar professorships qualify.
