An important function of <strong>Pittcon</strong> is to recognize and honor scientists who have made outstanding contributions<br />
to analytical chemistry and applied spectroscopy.<br />
PITTSBURGH ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY AWARD<br />
Tuesday, March 13, <strong>2012</strong> – 8:00 a.m., Room 300<br />
alan G. marshall, Florida State University, will receive the <strong>2012</strong> Pittsburgh Analytical Chemistry Award from the Society for Analytical<br />
Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP). Alan Marshall obtained his Ph.D. from Stanford University. Before joining the faculty at Florida State<br />
University, he was a faculty member at the University of British Columbia and at Ohio State University. His recognitions include: Alfred P. Sloan<br />
Fellow, American Chemical Society Award in Chemical Instrumentation, Eastern Analytical Symposium Award, American Chemical Society<br />
Field-Franklin Award in Mass Spectrometry, Spectroscopy Society of Pittsburgh Maurice F. Hasler Award, New York Society for Applied<br />
Spectroscopy Gold Medal and the American Society for Mass Spectrometry Distinguished Contribution Award. He is a Fellow of both the<br />
American Physical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science and an FSU Distinguished Research Professor.<br />
PITTSBURGH SPECTROSCOPY AWARD<br />
Tuesday, March 13, <strong>2012</strong> – 2:00 p.m., Room 300<br />
W. E. (William Esco) moerner, Stanford University, will receive the <strong>2012</strong> Pittsburgh Spectroscopy Award presented by the Spectroscopy<br />
Society of Pittsburgh (SSP). The SSP Award, established in 1957, honors an individual who has made outstanding contributions in the field<br />
of spectroscopy. W.E. Moerner, The Harry S. Mosher Professor of Chemistry and Professor, by courtesy, of Applied Physics, at Stanford<br />
University, has conducted research in the areas of physical chemistry and biophysics of single molecules, super-resolution, nanophotonics,<br />
photorefractive polymers and trapping of single biomolecules in solution.<br />
PITTSBURGH CONFERENCE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD<br />
Monday, March 12, <strong>2012</strong> – 8:00 a.m., Room 300<br />
christy l. haynes, University of Minnesota, will receive the <strong>2012</strong> Pittsburgh Conference Achievement Award. This award, sponsored jointly<br />
by the Pittsburgh Conference and the Society for Analytical Chemists of Pittsburgh (SACP), recognizes individuals who have made outstanding<br />
achievements within ten years after completion of the Ph.D. work. Christy Haynes is currently an Associate Professor of Chemistry mentoring a<br />
group of 10 doctoral students and 9 undergraduate researchers. Her group’s research focus has been on pushing the limits of analytical tools to<br />
explore interdisciplinary areas such as nanoparticle toxicity and inflammation.<br />
ACS DIVISION OF ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY AWARD FOR YOUNG INVESTIGATORS IN SEPARATION SCIENCE<br />
Wednesday, March 14, <strong>2012</strong> – 8:00 p.m., Room 300<br />
Jared l. anderson, University of Toledo, will receive the <strong>2012</strong> ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry Award for Young Investigators in<br />
Separation Science. The award, sponsored by Agilent Technologies and administered by the Analytical Division of the American Chemical<br />
Society, recognizes and encourages outstanding contributions to the field of separation science by a young chemist or chemical engineer<br />
within ten years of their highest degree. Jared Anderson is the author of over 65 peer-reviewed publications and currently has a research group<br />
consisting of 7 Ph.D. and 4 undergraduate students. His research focuses on the synthesis and use of ionic liquids in analytical<br />
microextractions, purification and chromatography.<br />
BOMEM-MICHELSON AWARD<br />
THE COBLENTZ SOCIETY/ABB<br />
Tuesday, March 13, <strong>2012</strong> – 8:00 a.m., Room 206B<br />
Joel m. harris, University of Utah, will receive the <strong>2012</strong> Bomem-Michelson Award, of the Coblentz Society/ABB for his research in analytical<br />
laser spectroscopy. The Coblentz Society presents the Bomem-Michelson Award, which is dedicated to the memory of Professor A.E.<br />
Michelson, developer of the Michelson Interferometer. ABB sponsors the annual award to honor a scientist who has advanced the<br />
technique(s) of vibrational, molecular, Raman or electronic spectroscopy. Joel Harris has developed novel techniques for observing reactions<br />
of electronically-excited states and determining molecular populations, structure and kinetics at liquid/solid interfaces.<br />
DAL NOGARE AWARD<br />
Monday, March 12, <strong>2012</strong> – 8:00 a.m., Room 206A<br />
Purnendu K. (sandy) Dasgupta, University of Texas at Arlington, will receive the <strong>2012</strong> Dal Nogare Award for <strong>2012</strong>, presented by The<br />
Chromatography Forum of Delaware Valley (CFDV), for his outstanding work in the field of chromatography. An awardee is chosen on the basis<br />
of his or her contributions to the fundamental understanding of the chromatographic process. Established in honor of Stephen Dal Nogare<br />
who died in 1968 after serving six months as President of the Forum, the CFDV Award recognizes Purnendu Dasgupta. Purnendu Dasgupta’s<br />
most notable contributions to separation sciences lies in the principles and applications of ion chromatography. He is credited with the<br />
development of electrodialytic suppressors, eluent generators and postcolumn reagent introduction devices.<br />
