Talk:Hans Freeman

Expanding
I have done a quick expansion of this to put some info on Hans. If someone wants to do a larger expansion, there is a nice Obit on him written by Trevor Hambley in the Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry (2009, vol 14(3), pp. 327-328) and another from Mitchell Guss in Acta. Cryst. D. (2009, D65, pp. 93-95). EdChem (talk) 17:03, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Is there a chance to get his birth name? Freeman would be very strange for Germany at that point of time. The names present in Breslau 1910 give no Freeman, but Freimann. I know that this is a chelenge!--Stone (talk) 09:56, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I have no idea how to do this - family research is not my area. Can anyone else offer any help on establishing whether Hans had a different birth name?  EdChem (talk) 12:34, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
 * If there is no source for it we can assume that he had no different birth name and it is OK, but I wanted to raise my suspicion.--Stone (talk) 19:31, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Suggestions for FAC
A few suggestions to help with a possible FAC push: Sasata (talk) 16:02, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 * for a photo, I'd suggest emailing the Chemistry department of the U of Sydney. Explain to them what you're doing with the article, and my guess is they'd be happy to supply a photo to honour a colleague
 * add a bit more detail (eg. a sentence or two) about what his doctoral work with biuret hydrate was about
 * academic output: how many papers has he published? In a quick google search, I saw that his last paper was published posthumously, worth a mention I think
 * any notable students?
 * the "Personal life" section is thin…. any sources that could be used to expand this (even if only by a few sentences?)
 * this mentions a symposium held to "mark his formal retirement"
 * any info about the Hans Freeman Lectureship?


 * Thanks for the comments / suggestions. I have previously sent an email requesting a photo, without success, but will try again.  I have also enquired about getting an image made of the biuret hydrate crystal structure.  I think his total paper output was about 170 (recalling from the Guss obituary) but I'll look into it further.  Further additions to follow later.  EdChem (talk) 16:36, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
