Transcription

Early life and education

Berova earned her PhD at the University of Sofia in 1972.[1] She stayed working for the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences for her early career.[2] During this time she worked on chiroptical spectroscopy at Ruhr University Bochum, where she worked under the supervision of Günther Snatzke.

Research and career

She was made an Associate Professor in Organic Chemistry at Sofia University in 1982, and made a visiting professor at Columbia University in 1988.[1] Soon after she became a Research Professor at Columbia University, working with Koji Nakanishi on chiroptical spectroscopy of natural products.[2] Their work started with the examination of biopolymers using exciton chirality, including pectin classification and the determination of glycosidic bonds.[3]

Berova was the first and only woman to win the Chirality Medal.[4] Berova's citation reads "in recognition of her outstanding achievements in the field of chiroptical spectroscopy and the elucidation of a wide range of important chemical and biological problems related to molecular and supramolecular chirality".[4] She has delivered short courses on chrioptical spectroscopies included Optical Rotatory Dispersion, Circular Dichroism and Raman Optical Activity.[5] She was elected an honorary member of the Italian Chemical Society at the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa in 2012.[2]
