报告人基本信息：

Professor Ziad El Rassi was born in Lebanon (land of Cedars of God http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMfvmSdriVM) and received his early education in the school system of Lebanon.  The B.S. degree in chemistry was earned at the Lebanese University, Beirut, in 1972, followed by an Education Degree at the same University in 1973.  He matriculated to Claude-Bernard University in Lyon, France, for M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in analytical chemistry in 1974 and 1978, respectively. A visiting Assistant Professorship followed at Ecole Centrale de Lyon (Engineering School), France (1978-1980).  He then joined the Chemical Engineering Department at Yale University, New Haven, CT, as an Associate Research Scientist (1980-1985) and was appointed to Research Scientist over the period of 1985-1988.  An Assistant Professorship was accepted in 1988 at Oklahoma State University (OSU) in the Department of Chemistry.  He rose through the ranks to become Full professor in 1998.

El Rassi’s current research in separation science is focused on furthering the development of modern liquid phase separation techniques such as high performance liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis and capillary electrochromatography by (i) introducing novel separation schemes and principles of high resolving power for biological substances and natural products (ii) investigating the underlying physico-chemical phenomena, (iii) improving the methodology of the three separation techniques, (iv) developing column-based separation platforms for proteomics and (iv) introducing novel applications of general use in the life sciences. http://casb.okstate.edu/testas/chem2010/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=39&Itemid=123

During El Rassi’s tenure at OSU, he has directed the research of 10undergraduates, 10 M.S. students, 17 Ph.D. students and 6 Postdoctoral fellows. The research has resulted in 180 peer reviewed papers and book chapters, 220 presentations including 140 invited lectures at various locations around the world. Also, edited two books on Carbohydrate Analysis in 1995 and 2002

Prof. El Rassi is a member of the permanent scientific committees of The Asia Pacific International Symposium on Microscale Separations, The International Symposium on Capillary Electroseparation Techniques (ITP), and The Latin-American Symposium on Biotechnology, Biomedical, Biopharmaceutical and Industrial Applications of Capillary Electrophoresis and Microchip Technology

Besides serving on the editorial boards of several international journals, Prof. El Rassi is the Editor-In-Chief of the journal ELECTROPHORESIS. He also edited two books on carbohydrate analysis by chromatography and electrophoresis.

Prof. El Rassi has received the following research awards: Sigma Xi Lectureship Award in 2004, Regents Distinguished Research Award in 2005, Oklahoma Scientist of the Year Award in 2006 and Oklahoma Chemist of the Year Award in 2007.
