2008-09-12T16:28:53-05:00 Art joined the staff of the Research Resources Center in 1984 as an assistant in the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Laboratory after receiving a Ph.D. in inorganic chemistry from the University of South Carolina. There he had determined the NMR properties of boron hydride and organo-borane dimer and trimer cage compounds and organic selenium compounds. He took on additional duties as head of the Research Resources Center Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy Laboratory just a few months after coming to the Research Resources Center. In 1995 he took on another facility as head of Microprobe, Wavelength Dispersive Spectroscopy Laboratory (WDS) teaching people how to operate an electron microprobe and maintaining the instrument. In fall 1999 he began managing the RRC Mass Spectrometry Laboratory where he now directs the analysis of all service samples. In February 2000, the AASL lab was closed and the IL Vidoe-22 was moved to Professor Krishna Reddy's lab in the Department of Civil and Materials Engineering. Shortly thereafter the Microprobe, Wavelength Dispersive Spectroscopy Laboratory (WDS) was put under the auspices of the Electron Microscopy Service (EMS). Several students have written thesis with atomic absorption spectroscopic determination of elements as a main component of their research. He has served as a member of the thesis defense committee of one student who used wavelength dispersive spectroscopy in their thesis research and for several students who have used mass spectrometry in their thesis research. He has helped many researchers setup and perform complicated nuclear magnetic resonance experiments. He has written many computer programs and scripts to process NMR data, to acquire, process, plot and report AA data, an on-line instrument schedule, and has performed as system administrator of UNIX workstations in the NMR lab. Art has published four papers in NMR of inorganic compounds. art@uic.edu true 1 John Arthur 13 Anderson 312-355-2124 image/jpeg Art Anderson .jpg 659456 2009-08-05T09:23:04-05:00 2008-06-09T15:58:13-05:00 Carrie obtained her Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2006 working with Dr. Luke Hanley. Her Ph.D. research consisted of surface modification and analysis of synthetic bio-materials to enhance cellular growth. Carrie also utilized x-ray standing wave fluorescence (XSW) to study the conformation of bio-molecules adsorbed at the solid-liquid interface on synthetic bio-materials. Carrie has worked in the RRC Mass Spectrometry Laboratory since 2003 in which she provides accurate mass analysis as well as the analysis of biological samples such as proteins and peptides to researchers campus-wide. ccrot1@uic.edu false 1 Carrie Ann 2 Crot 312-413-5867 image/jpeg Carrie Crot.jpg 45056 2009-01-15T12:48:51-06:00 2008-11-07T16:22:50-06:00 Rod comes to us from North Carolina, where he was working at GLAXOSMITHKLINE as a Scientist, Genomic and Proteomic Sciences.
