Albert Lloyd George Rees (15 January 1916 – 14 August 1989) was an Australian chemical physicist.
He then worked part-time as a laboratory assistant at Melbourne University whilst studying for a Chemistry degree, which he obtained in 1936.
[5] After a few years of research at Philips Electrical Industries U.K., where he led a team studying problems associated with the manufacture of cathode ray tubes, he returned to Australia to take up a post at CSIR in Melbourne as leader of a new Section of Chemical Physics devoted to the application of physical techniques to chemical problems, including protein structure investigations, chemico-physical studies of the solid state, the determination of molecular structure and energetics, and the development of new and improved chemico-physical techniques.
[5] He was elected a fellow of the Australian Chemical Institute (FRACI) in 1948 and awarded their Rennie (1945), Smith (1951) and Leighton (1970) Medals.
He became a fellow of the Australian Academy of Science (FAA) in 1954 and was awarded Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1978.
