Nobuhiko IKI − Editorial Board Member
Nobuhiko IKI was born in 1966 in Sapporo, Japan and graduated from Tohoku University in
1988. During his postgraduate course (1989−1990), he studied coordination chemistry at the
Department of Chemistry, Imperial College London, with Prof. D. F. Evans. He received his
Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from Tohoku University under the direction of Prof. T. Yotsuyanagi
in 1994. After his postdoctoral work at Ames Laboratory, Iowa State University, with Prof. E.
S. Yeung, he joined Prof. S. Miyano's group at Tohoku University as a Research Associate to
study thiacalixarene chemistry in 1996. He was promoted to an Associate Professor at the
Graduate School of Environmental Studies, Tohoku University, in 2003, and then to a full
Professor at the same school in 2014. His research interests focus on multifunctional metal
complexes for bioimaging and therapy, capillary electrophoretic reactors for evaluating kinetic
stability of metal and biomolecular complexes, and kinetic differentiation mode separation/
detection systems for ultratrace metal ions.
