Prof. Elo Hansen receives the Talanta Medal from Prof. Gary Christian, Co-Editor-in-Chief of Talanta.

The 2015 TALANTA MEDAL, sponsored by Elsevier, has been awarded to Prof. Elo H. Hansen, of the Technical University of Denmark. The medal was presented on 8th March 2016 at a special private reception held in his honour during the Pittcon 2016 conference in Atlanta, and represents the re-inauguration of the medal after a 20 year hiatus. As research scientist, editor, scholar, and teacher, Prof. Hansen's contributions to flow injection analysis (FIA) in particular over more than four decades have been at the cutting edge and have resulted in significant advances in analytical chemistry. He served as Co-Editorin-Chief of Talanta from 1990 to 1994; a crucial period in the journal's history. He served as President of the Danish Analytical Chemistry Society from 1977 to 1979. He has written more than 200 scientific publications and 5 monographs, presented more than 230 lectures internationally, and shares over 40 patents on FIA. His work has been recognized by awards, amongst which include the G.A. Hagemann Gold Medal (1993), The Charles University (Prague) Silver Commemorative Medal (1999), The Danish Eurolab Honour Prize (1999), the Medal of the University of Warsaw (2000), the Deakin University (Australia) “Geoff Wilson” Medal (2003), the JAFIA Scientific Honour Award (Japan) (2003), and the Hartmann Memorial Prize (Denmark) (2005). The TALANTA MEDAL is to be awarded, on a biennial basis, in recognition of outstanding contributions to analytical chemistry.
