NEW ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER The Editorial Board and the Publisher of Talanta take pleasure in welcoming the following member of the Advisory Board of the Journal. JED HARRISON
Jed Harrison is a native of Vancouver. He received his B.Sc. in Chemical Physics from Simon Fraser University in 1980, and received the Gordon Shrum Gold Medal upon graduation. He was the recipient of an N S E R C Postgraduate Fellowship while undertaking graduate studies in Chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. There he worked with Professor Mark Wrighton and graduated with a Ph.D. in 1984. He then joined the Chemistry Department at the University of Alberta, and became a full Professor in 1994. He was the 1993 recipient of the Canadian Society for Chemistry's W.A.E. McBryde Medal, awarded for research in analytical chemistry. In 1994 he received the University of Alberta's first Faculty of Science Research Award. Harrison is the co-author of over 60 scientific publications, and works with a research group of undergraduate, graduate and Post-doctoral students that numbers about 10. His research interests are generally in electrochemistry, specifically in the development of membranes for chemical and biochemical sensors, and the use of microelectronic fabrication techniques for sensors and sensor systems. This program encompasses the development of new ion-selective electrode membrane matrices suited for use with integrated circuit technology, and the study of transport of ions, neutral molecules and solvents within polymer membrane matrices. Recently his group has begun developing electrophoresis systems on glass "chips". Funding for this research has come from industry and from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council. Harrison is Associate Editor of a new journal, Analytical Methods and Instrumentation. He serves on the program selection committees of the biennial IEEE-sponsored Sensor and Actuator Workshop, and Transducers, the International Conference on Solid-State Sensors and Actuators. He is a member of the Electrochemical Society Sensor Group Executive Committee, and was recently elected a board member of the Society for Electroanalytical Chemistry.
