Philippe BÜHLMANN − Editorial Board Member

Philippe BÜHLMANN, Associate Professor at the Department of Chemistry, University of Minnesota, was born in 1964. He obtained an MS degree (1989) from the Department of Natural Sciences, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zürich, and, following studies in analytical chemistry with Prof. Wilhelm Simon, a PhD degree from ETH (1993). He was a postdoctoral fellow of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (1993−1994) and a research assoicate (1994−2000) at the Department of Chemistry, School of Science, the University of Tokyo. He joined the University of Minnesota as Assistant Professor and has been Associate Professor since 2006. Phil's research interets focus on molecular recognition, perfluoropolymers, and their use in electrochemical sensors. He loves his daily bike commute throughout the Minnesotan winter just as much as a quiet reading of a manuscript at the kotatsu, but he is also always eagerly looking forward to his next visit to a Japanese rotenburo.
