Integrative Science: John Donovan

John Donovan’s innovations advance ONAMI’s objectives for integrative science in research and education

"Talk to John Donovan." ... "You should really talk to John Donovan." ..."Have you talked to John Donovan?"

Ask any number of faculty, scientists, and researchers on campus about the labs in the UO's new underground Oregon Nanoscience and Microtechnologies Institute (ONAMI) research center, and you're likely to hear the name John Donovan. These pros aren't passing the buck, they're merely giving the nod to someone whose expertise they obviously admire.

Dave Johnson, UO chemistry professor, nanotechnology trailblazer, and ONAMI codirector, credits Donovan with being a big influence on the new collaborative, interdisciplinary direction in scientific research at the UO. "John changed the way we do research," he says. "We're developing new ways to do things, and as a result we get better data."
