Joseph S. Francisco is the President’s Distinguished Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Pennsylvania. His research specializes in basic studies related to spectroscopy, kinetics, photochemistry, and novel transient species, with a focus on gas-phase interactions and atmospheric processes. Francisco's work addresses the correlational structures and reactivity associated with photochemical mechanisms in various systems. His research interests are extensive and include the spectroscopic determination of electronic and vibrational transitions of free radicals, the kinetics of individual gas-phase reactions involving free radicals, and the dynamics of atmospheric chemistry at the air/water interface. He aims to utilize advanced molecular orbital methods to predict the spectroscopic properties of novel species, facilitating thorough experimental characterization. Francisco's contributions to the field are evidenced by his publication record, which includes important studies on reaction mechanisms and photochemistry.
