Lecture: The Limits of Efficiency in Liquid Chromatography

John G. Dorsey is the Katherine Blood Hoffman Professor of Chemistry at Florida State University, where he served as Chair of the Department from 1994-1999. He received his Ph.D. degree in Analytical Chemistry in 1979, under T. W. Gilbert at the University of Cincinnati, and then spent ten years on the faculty at the University of Florida. He returned to Cincinnati as Professor in 1989 and moved to Florida State University as Chair in 1994. His research interests are in the areas of fundamental liquid chromatography and separation science. He has about 135 publications in these areas, and has served as Editor for Journal of Chromatography A since 1999. He is the recipient of the 1997 Benedetti-Pichler Award of the American Microchemical Society, the 2000 Charles H. Stone Award from the Carolina-Piedmont Section of the ACS, the 2004 Florida Section Award of the American Chemical Society, the 2004 Eastern Analytical Symposium Award for Achievements in Separation Science, and the 2006 American Chemical Society Award in Chromatography.

Lecture: New Sources and Spectrometers for Chemical and Bioscience Analysis

Gary M. Hieftje is Distinguished Professor and Mann Chair of Chemistry at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. His research interests include the investigation of basic mechanisms in atomic emission, absorption, fluorescence and mass spectrometric analysis, and the development of instrumentation and techniques for atomic methods of analysis. He is interested also in the on-line computer control of chemical instrumentation and experiments, the use of time-resolved luminescence processes for analysis, the application of information theory to analytical chemistry, analytical mass spectrometry, near-infrared reflectance analysis, and the use of stochastic processes to extract basic and kinetic chemical information. He has won numerous awards in the fields of analytical chemistry and spectroscopy, has held major offices in several scientific societies, and has served on the editorial boards of many major journals. He is the author of roughly 500 publications, 10 books, and 15 patents. More than 60 students have received doctorates under his direction.
