Professor Richard A. Durst is Professor Emeritus of Chemistry at Cornell University and is currently Adjunct Professor in the Cornell Department of Biological & Environmental Engineering. He received his Ph.D in analytical chemistry in 1963 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He joined the U.S. National Bureau of Standards (now NIST) in 1966 where he served as Chief of the Electrochemical Analysis Section and Deputy Director of the Center for Analytical Chemistry. In September 1990, he joined the faculty of Cornell University. He served on several editorial advisory boards, including Analytical Chemistry and Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology. He was a member of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and served on various IUPAC Commissions and Committees for over 30 years and became an IUPAC Fellow in 2002. Also in 2002, he was elected a member of the European Academy of Sciences. In addition to his earlier research in the area of electroanalytical chemistry, his recent research interests included the application of biological recognition (antibodies, nucleic acid probes and natural receptors) and liposome amplification strategies to the development biosensors. |
