LCGC Lifetime Achievement and Emerging Leader in Chromatography

This session honors the 2023 LCGC award winners. Wolfgang Lindner, professor emeritus in analytical chemistry at the University of Vienna and the 2024 winner of the Lifetime Achievement in Chromatography Award. He has made significant contributions in liquid chromatography (LC) and the development of chiral drugs. He has developed and licensed several chiral stationary phases that have been widely used by both researchers and the pharmaceutical industry. Martina Catani is an assistant professor of analytical chemistry at the University of Ferrara and the 2024 winner of the Emerging Leader in Chromatography Award. Her research focuses on the purification of polypeptides, oligonucleotides, and proteins by means of single-column and continuous countercurrent multi-column preparative liquid chromatography (LC); separation of natural cannabinoids; and investigation of kinetic and thermodynamic phenomena in chiral and achiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC).
