We specialize on the investigation of small organic molecules from complex matrices. To accomplish this goal, we study all aspects of sample preparation, chromatography, and mass spectrometry. From time to time, we adventure into the realm of chemometrics.
We have access to state-of-art analytical instrumentation. We work 24/7. Check out our main interests.

​
I was very lucky to find exceptional friends and mentors early in my career. My Ph.D. thesis described the development of plant-based metabolomics for diagnosing diseases in plants using mass spectrometry-based techniques (GCxGC-MS and LC-MS), under the mentorship of Prof. Fabio Augusto. Later on, I spend some time as a visiting scholar to research on ionic liquid chemistry under the guidance of Prof. Jared Anderson. For a brief period, I also worked with Prof. Ronei Poppi to model high-order chromatographic data using chemometric tools.

2019. The John Phillips Award (ISCC & GCxGC). (link)
2019. Young Researcher Award (BrJAC).
2018. Top 40 under 40 (The Analytical Scientist). (link)
The Top 40 Under 40 Power List returns to celebrate the gifted young scientists making waves in analytical science. Here we present the rising stars of the field (in alphabetical order), as nominated by our readers and shortlisted by our independent judging panel.
The late Professor John Bruce Phillips of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, in conjunction with his then graduate student, Dr. Zaiyou Liu, invented the comprehensive two dimensional gas chromatograpy, or GC x GC. The Phillips Award will be awarded to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the field of GC x GC analysis in Prof. Phillips' honor. This year's award is proudly sponsored by LECO and Restek.
Awarded by BrJAC.
