The bioanalytical research groups at the University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology welcome several speakers in the "Gothenburg Bioanalytical webinar series". The speaker at this seminar is Martin Edwards, University of Arkansas, USA.
The seminar takes place at 15:00 - 16:00, including questions. After the seminar, there is an opportunity to participate in an open informal discussion at 16:00 - 16:30.
All are welcome.
Professor Martin Edwards is an assistant professor of analytical chemistry at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. He has worked in several top laboratories around the world including Patrik Unwin at Warwick, UK and R Mark Wightman at University of North Carolina, USA.
His group’s research combines physical/analytical techniques with mathematical modeling to understand and manipulate diverse micro- and nanoscale phenomena. Using an approach that combines physical and analytical measurements with modeling (mathematical/statistical/numerical), he has tackled problems and answered questions in areas ranging from single-molecule bioanalytical measurements, through next-generation energy-storage technologies, nucleation, and electrocatalysis. A constant thread throughout his research is the development of novel instrumentation, experiments, and the frameworks for interpreting them. His work frequently involves the development or modification of scanned probe microscopes.
He has been awarded the 2020 recipient of the Royce Murray Young Investigator award from the Society of Electroanalytical Chemistry (SEAC), and the 2022 Robert C. and Sandra Connor Endowed Faculty Fellowship.
