Marek Trojanowicz was born in 1944 in Warsaw. He has obtained M.Sc. (1966),
Ph.D. (1974) and D.Sc. (1981) degrees in Department of Chemistry, University of Warsaw in
the field of Analytical Chemistry.
Since 1989 he is head of the Laboratory for Flow Analysis and Chromatography in University
of Warsaw.
Since 1991 he is titular professor of chemistry in Department of Chemistry, University of
Warsaw,
and since 1992 also professor of Chemistry in Department of Analytical Chemistry in the
Institute of Nuclear Chemistry and Technology in Warsaw.
His post-doc one year studies he carried out in Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan and
spend also 2 years as Research Associate
in the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. For several month study stays as
Visiting Professor he has been invited to
University of Michigan, USA, Strathclyde University in Glasgow, UK, University of Tasmania,
Australia, University of Sao Paulo, Brazil,
University of Münster, Germany, University of Rome "La Sapienza", Italy, and University of
Graz, Austria. In years 2003-04 he was appointed
for six months as a Senior Fulbright Fellow in University of California at Riverside, USA.
With his research group from Warsaw University
he took part in four research projects financed by European Commission, and served as expert
in 5th Framework of European Commission.
His scientific interests include flow analysis and automation of chemical analysis,
ion-selective electrodes, biosensors, ion-chromatography,
capillary electrophoresis and the use of ionizing radiation for degradation of organic
pollutants for environmental protection.
He is author of 230 scientific papers in international analytical journals, two monographs
on automation in analytical chemistry
and on flow-injection analysis and 9 Polish and foreign patents. He is member of Advisory
Boards of international analytical journals Talanta
(Elsevier), Analytical Letters (M. Dekker), Microchimica Acta (Springer) and
Journal of Flow Injection Analysis (Japan).
In years 1992-2003 he was Scientific Secretary of the Committee for Analytical Chemistry of
Polish Academy of Sciences.
He is member of Polish Chemical Society, International Electrochemical Society and Society
of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry.
