Fink describes his childhood interest in chemistry, which made it possible for him to be the first student exempted from freshman and sophomore chemistry at the University of Michigan; graduate work in nuclear chemistry at the University of California at Berkeley with Glenn T. Seaborg and at the University of Rochester; post-doctoral work also at Rochester; work at the University of Arkansas on nuclear spectroscopy and "nuclear structures" physics; and a sabbatical in 1959-1960 at the Werner Institute for Nuclear Chemistry at the University of Uppsala, Sweden, where he worked with the 184 MeV Uppsala synchrocyclotron and on isotope separation; and he lists the graduate students and post-docs who have worked with him.
