Since joining Bell Labs in 1984, and subsequently UC Santa Barbara in 1990, Glenn Fredrickson has contributed many timely and inspiring theories to the polymer physics community. These developments have had a significant impact on the speaker, often resulting in years of experimental research. This lecture will trace forward representative examples of Fredrickson's theoretical insights that have spawned innovative and scholarly research.
