Robert P. Lattimer (February 2, 1945 - ) is a retired chemist who worked for Lubrizol as an Advanced Materials research and development technical fellow. He is an advocate for including intelligent design in public science curriculum.

Education

Lattimer attended the University of Missouri where he earned a B.S. in chemistry. He obtained his doctoral degree in 1971 in physical/analytical chemistry from the University of Kansas.

Career

Lattimer worked for B.F. Goodrich and later Noveon and Lubrizol as a research chemist. He retired as a Senior Technical Fellow following nearly 40 years of service. His published work on mass spectrometry and polymer characterization and degradation have been widely cited. He is a past Vice-President of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry. Lattimer was Vice-Chairman of the 1985 Gordon Research Conference on Analytical Pyrolysis. His most cited work treated the subject of mass spectrometry of transition metal macrocycles.

Political Advocacy

Lattimer is a board member for the Eagle Forum of Ohio. He has advocated for pro-family issues in the state, and he has been the Science Issues Chairman. He advocated for including Intelligent Design in the Ohio Board of Education's state science curriculum. Lattimer was a founder of the advocacy group Science Excellence for All Ohioans (SEAO).
