Sabbatical periods were spent at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, Johns Hopkins Medical School, Department of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics,and the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He was William Evans Visiting Fellow at Otago University, New Zealand. Dr. Joule has taught many courses on heterocyclic chemistry to industry and academe in the UK and elsewhere. He is currently Associate Editor for Tetrahedron Letters , Scientifi c Editor for Arkivoc , and Co Editor of the annual Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry. Keith Mills was born in Barnsley, Yorkshire, England and attended Barnsley Grammar School, going on to study for BSc, MSc and PhD (1971; with John Joule) degrees at The University of Manchester. Following post - doctoral periods at Columbia (Gilbert Stork) and Imperial College (Derek Barton/ Philip Magnus), he joined Allen and Hanburys (part of the Glaxo Group) at Ware and later Stevenage (fi nally as part of GSK), working in Medicinal Chemistry and Development Chemistry departments for a total of 25 years. During this time he spent a secondment at Glaxo, Verona. Since leaving GSK he has been an independent consultant to small pharmaceutical companies. Dr. Mills has worked in several areas of medicine and many areas of organic chemistry, but with particular emphasis on heterocyclic chemistry and the applications of transition metal - catalysed reactions.
