Richard Smith Receives American Chemical Society National Award for Creative Work in Analytical Chemistry
Richard Smith, Battelle Fellow and Chief Scientist at EMSL, received the American Chemical Society’s 2003 national award for creative work in Analytical Chemistry. Dr. Smith’s accomplishments include developments that involve the integration of work in two analytical disciplines: separation science and mass spectrometry. His leading role in the applications of these combined techniques to modern bioanalytical problems and biological systems characterization has led to numerous advances in analytical chemistry, and most recently in major new capabilities for large-scale protein studies. Dr. Smith’s research has included the development of capillary electrophoresis in combination with mass spectrometry. Dr. Smith also was honored as a highly cited author in chemistry by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI). ISI provides the research community with products and services that enable them to gain access to historical research and keep abreast of the most recent developments in their respective disciplines.
