A.E. Alexander Lecture

The A.E. Alexander Lecture was established in 1978 as a result of an appeal by the University of Sydney and the RACI Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry to commemorate Professor Albert ‘Alex’ Alexander FAA FRACI, who was Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Sydney from 1957-1970. The Alexander Lecturer is an eminent scientist who has contributed particularly to Colloid and Surface Science in Australia. The lecture is delivered at a national meeting of the Colloid and Surface Science Division and at the University of Sydney.
