Alessandro D’Ulivo is a Senior Researcher at National Research Council of Italy, developing his research activity at the Institute of Chemistry of Organometallic Compounds, Pisa-Italy, since 1981. Teaching Analytical Chemistry at Pisa University since 1991. In 2013 he received the qualification of full professor in Analytical Chemistry. His research interests are in the field of trace element determination and speciation by atomic and mass spectrometry, fundamental aspects and applications of vapour generation techniques, atomizers and element specific detectors for chromatography. He is a member of Editorial Advisory Board of Spectrochimica Acta Part B, Atomic Spectroscopy (Elsevier) and a IUPAC Fellow. He received the Ioannes Marcus Marci Medal in 2018 and the Török Tibor Medal in 2020. Ralph Sturgeon’s technical interests lie in inorganic analytical chemistry, comprising trace element analysis, vapor generation, organometallic speciation and production of Certified Reference Materials with a focus on atomic and mass spectrometric detection. He has published some 330 peer reviewed articles, is past Editor for Spectrochimica Acta Reviews and currently serves on the advisory boards of several international analytical chemistry journals. For more than 20 years Sturgeon has interacted extensively with the international metrology community, serving on working groups affiliated with both ISO and the BIPM while actively participating in audits of National Metrology Institute laboratories throughout the world. His contributions to analytical atomic spectroscopy have been recognized through a number of awards, including most recently the 2019 CSI Award. He was peer ranked amongst the top 10 most influential analytical spectroscopists for 2017 by the Analytical Scientist.
