  • This delegate is presenting an abstract at this event.
Wolfgang F. Lindner was appointed 1996 for the Chair of Analytical Chemistry at the University of Vienna. His research interests were influenced by pharmaceutical (life) sciences and by separation sciences related to HPLC, GC, CE/CEC and MS. In this context special focus was drawn towards non-covalent molecular interactions and recognition phenomena within the frame of stereochemistry and enantiomer discrimination. The development of novel synthetic selectors (receptors) useful for enantioselective separation techniques but also for bioaffinity chromatography lies at the interface of organic, analytical and biological chemistry which characterizes best his scientific credo. Wolfgang Lindner was trained in Organic Chemistry at the University of Graz (Austria)receiving his PhD in 1972. Then he moved on to the Institute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry in Graz specializing inpharmaceutical analysis. In 1978 he made a postdoc stay at Prof. Barry L. Karger’s labs at North Eastern University in Boston (USA). In 1986 he was visiting scientist at the FDA/NIH in Bethesda (USA). Wolfgang Lindner was editor of Journal of Chromatography B from 1995 to 2006 and serves a number of journals as editorial/advisory board member. He has published more than 420 scientific papers, 12 book articles, holds 15 patents, etc. He has received a number of awards among them are the Chirality Medal, the ACS Award for Chromatography, the AGP Martin Medal, etc.
