<\/h5>\nProf. Dr. Robert Kennedy<\/span> Robert Kennedy is the Willard Professor of Chemistry and Professor of Pharmacology at the University of Michigan. He became professor of chemistry at the University of Florida in 1991 and served there for 11 years before moving to Michigan. His research interests are analytical chemistry and its application to neuroscience, endocrinology, and biotechnology.<\/p>\n His work has been recognized by several awards including two MERIT awards from the NIH, a Presidential Faculty Fellowship, a Sloan Foundation Fellowship, Beckman Young Investigator Award, ACS Findeis Award, McKnight Award for Technical Innovations in Neuroscience, and Golay Award for Achievements in Chromatography. He has held several service posts and is presently Associate Editor of Analytical Chemistry and Director of the Microfluidics in Biomedical Sciences Training Program at Michigan.<\/p>\n His group has developed instrumentation that couples sampling probes to capillary electrophoresis, capillary chromatography, mass spectrometry, and microfluidic assays for monitoring neurotransmitters in vivo. These methods have been used for studying changes in neurotransmitter concentrations associated with behavior and diseases. His group has also developed sensors and microfluidic devices for monitoring insulin secretion from pancreatic b-cells. These methods are coupled with metabolomics to understand the biochemical mechanism of insulin secretion and perturbations associated with diabetes. His group is also researching use of rapid electrophoretic and mass spectrometric assays as novel approaches to high-throughput screening.<\/p>\n Prof. Dr. Soledad Muniategui Lorenzo <\/span> Soledad Muniategui Lorenzo es catedr\u00e1tica de Qu\u00edmica Anal\u00edtica en la Universidad de A Coru\u00f1a (UDC) desde 2003.

Later, he joined the National Research Center in Roma (Italy) for a post-doctoral position concerning the application of capillary electrophoresis (CE) hyphenated to mass spectrometry (MS) for chiral separation in biological fluids. From 1998 to 2011, he was a master-assistant in Phytochemistry at the University of Lausanne and then Ma\u00eetre d\u2019Enseignement et de Recherche (MER), where he started to promote new strategies for untargeted MS analyses. He was promoted to Associate Professor in 2012 at the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Geneva, where he leads the biomedical and metabolomics analysis (BMA) group.<\/p>\n Serge Rudaz contributed to the field of analytical sciences with diverse activities, including invited lectures and invited professorships at various Universities.
