David W.C. MacMillan, born on March 16, 1968, in Bellshill, North Lanarkshire, Scotland, credits his Scottish upbringing and education for his success. He attended New Stevenston Primary School and Bellshill Academy before pursuing chemistry at the University of Glasgow, where he graduated in 1991. He then moved to the United States for graduate study, completing his PhD in 1996 at the University of California, Irvine, under the supervision of Professor Larry Overman. Following this, MacMillan joined Professor Dave Evans’ lab at Harvard University. In 1998, he established his research group at the University of California, Berkeley, before moving to Caltech in 2000. Since 2006, MacMillan has served as a professor of chemistry at Princeton University.<\/p>\n
MacMillan shares the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry with Benjamin List for their work on the development of asymmetric organocatalysis. He has dedicated his prize money to the May and Billy MacMillan Foundation, named in honor of his parents, with the intention of providing financial support to less privileged students to help finance their studies.<\/p>\n
