(Sadat Academy), PhD (McMaster University), HDR (Université de Lorraine), FRSA, FRSB, FInstP, FRSC, FAAS, FAAAS, is Professor and Chair/Head of the Department of Chemistry & Physics at Mount Saint Vincent University and an Adjunct (Honorary) Professor at Dalhousie, Laval, and Saint Mary’s Universities (all in Canada), and holds frequent Visiting Professorships at Zewail City for Science and Technology (Egypt). After receiving his doctorate from McMaster under Professor Richard F. W. Bader, Matta has been a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Toronto (with Nobel Laureate Professor John C. Polanyi) and an Izaak W. Killam Postdoctoral Fellow at Dalhousie University (with Professor Russell J. Boyd). Chérif Matta’s research ranges from theoretical and computational chemistry to mitochondrial biophysics. He has introduced with Dr. Ron Cook and Prof. Paul W. Ayers electron Localization-Delocalization Matrices (LDMs) as predictive descriptors in materials and bio-pharmacological research. He discovered an unusual role of the enzyme ATP synthase and is a co-discoverer of the Hydrogen-Hydrogen bonding interaction. Matta has given more than 250 lectures in over 30 countries and has ca. 200 publications including four books cited approx. 9000 times. Matta has been named “Distinguished Visiting Professor” by the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education 2022-2023, was the 2021–2022 “Science Atlantic Speaker of the Year”, has been awarded Mount Saint Vincent University’s Award for Research Excellence (2017), the Lady Davis Fellowship (2016-2017), the NSERC-Acfas “Preuve par l’image” Prize for 2016, the Molecular Graphics and Molecular Simulation Society Silver Jubilee Prize for 2009, the John C. Polanyi Prize in Chemistry for 2004, and the Izaak Walton Killam Fellowship in 2002–2004. Prof. Matta is an elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, of the African Academy of Sciences, of the Royal Society of Chemistry, of the Institute of Physics, of the Royal Society of Biology, and of the Royal Society of the Arts. He has served as Chair/Head of the Interdisciplinary Adjudication Committee of the Canada Research Chairs Programme of the Tri-Council of Canada and is currently serving as Director of Accreditation & Member of the Board of Directors of the Canadian Society for Chemistry.
