Biography
Robert Malhiot earned both his M.S. and Ph.D. in physics at Illinois
Institute of Technology (IIT). His doctoral thesis was on anharmonicity in
crystal vibrations. After receiving his Ph.D., Malhiot began teaching at
IIT, where he would remain until retiring in 1987. Malhiot has since been
active in conservation. His name appears among the several hundred
professors and researchers who sent a letter to Congress on the findings of
the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the National Research
Council. The letter, sent in October 2003, urged Congress to take action
against climate change. [1]
