Advances in Chromatography

Dr. Nelu Grinberg recently retired following an eminent career in research chemistry in the pharmaceutical industry. An internationally known expert in analytical chemistry, with an emphasis on chromatography, spectroscopy, and chiral separations, he was a Distinguished Research Fellow in the Chemical Development Department at Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals in Ridgefield, CT until January 2017. Prior to this, he worked for sixteen years in the Analytical Department at Merck Research Laboratories in Rahway, NJ, where he was a Senior Research Fellow. Dr. Grinberg has authored and co-authored over 160 publications, including articles and book chapters, and has lectured and conducted courses worldwide. Along with being Co-Editor of the Advances in Chromatography series, he is currently Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Liquid Chromatography and Related Techniques, and Editor of both the Chromatographic Science book series and the Supramolecular book series. Dr. Grinberg is also a member of the Board of the Connecticut Separation Science Council and was a recipient of a Koltoff Fellowship from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In recognition of his achievements, Al. I. Cuza University in Iasi, Romania elected him an Honorary Member of their University Senate. Dr. Grinberg obtained his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the Technical University of lasi in Romania. He conducted post-doctoral research with Professor Barry Karger at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, and with Professor Emanuel Gil-Av at The Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel. Peter W. Carr received his B.S. in Chemistry from the Polytechnic Institute of Brookly and a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry at Pennsylvania State University (1969). Subsequently he was a postdoctoral associate at Stanford University Medical School (1968). From 1969 until 1977, he was first an Assistant Professor and then Associate Professor of Chemistry at the University of Georgia (Athens). In 1977, Prof. Carr joined the faculty at the University of Minnesota where he became Professor of Chemistry in 1981. He has been a consultant to Leeds and Northrup, Hewlett-Packard, the 3M Company and Agilent Technologies, and was the founder and first President of ZirChrom Separations Inc.. In 1986, he became an Associate Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Biological Process Technology at the University of Minnesota. He has been President of the Symposium on Analytical Chemistry in the Environment (1976), founder and first President of the Minnesota Chromatography Forum, and Chairman of the Subdivision of Chromatography and Separation Science of the Analytical Chemistry Division of the American Chemical Society (1988-1989). Dr. Carr has served on the Editorial Advisory Boards of Analytical Chemistry, Talanta, the Microchemical Journal, LC/GC, Journal of Chromatography, Chromatographia and Separation Science and Technology and the Journal of Liquid Chromatography. He is currently the co-editor of Advances in Chromatography. He has received the Leroy Sheldon Palmer Award of the Minnesota Chromatography Forum and the Merit Award of the Chicago Chromatography Discussion Group. He has also been the recipient of the Benedetti-Pichler Award from the American Microchemical Society in 1990, the Eastern Analytical Symposium, Inc. Award in Separation Science in 1993, the Stephen Dal Nogare Award of the Delaware Valley Chromatography Forum in 1996, the 1996 ACS Award in Chromatography sponsored by SUPELCO, Inc, the ISCO Award in 1997 and the Award in Separation Science of the Eastern Analytical Symposium in 2000. He was inducted into the Academy of Distinguished Teachers, University of Minnesota in 2002. He was awarded the Pittsburgh Conference Award in Analytical Chemistry in 2004. He is the 2009 recipient of the American Chemical Society Award in Analytical Chemistry.. He is the 2010 winner of the Martin Medal of the Chromatographic Society and the Horvath Medal of the Connecticut Separation Science Society and of the Hungarian Separation Science Society. He is the 2013 winner of the LCGC Lifetime Achievement Award. He received the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry's Award for Excellence in Education in 2013. In 2023 he co-authored Multi-Dimensional Liquid Chromatography with Dwight R. Stoll which appeared in the Chromatographic Science Series of monographs.
