Dr. George S. Wilson, professor of chemistry, was named associate
vice provost for research and vice president of the KU Center
for Research in October 2003. He has been at KU since 1987 and
is a Higuchi distinguished professor of chemistry and pharmaceutical
chemistry. One of the highlights of Wilson's career is the development
of an internal sensor that continuously monitors glucose in diabetic
patients. This real-time information is processed to provide
the patient a means of avoiding low blood sugar.
Dr. Wilson recently served a two-year term as president of the
Division of Physical and Biophysical Chemistry of the International
Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. He currently sits on KU's
Life Sciences Research Council.
Wilson's duties in the Office of the Vice Provost include oversight
of Lawrence campus research centers and institutes, research
space assignments, and investments in research.
