Über den Autor

Vladimir M. Mirsky is Professor at Regensburg University, Germany. He graduated from Moscow Medical University in 1981 as M.D. in biophysics and went on to study physical chemistry and electrochemistry at the Frumkin Institute of Electrochemistry of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, obtaining his Ph.D. in 1986. He subsequently held an Alexander-von-Humboldt Research Fellowship and a research position at the CNRS Centre of Molecular Biology in France prior to joining the Institute of Analytical Chemistry at Regensburg University in 1995. He editor of two recent books, "Ultrathin Electrochemical Chemo- and Biosensors" and "Combinatorial Methodologies for Development of Chemical and Biological Sensors". His work has led to 18 patents and patent applications as well as some 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers.Anatoly K. Yatsimirsky is Professor of chemistry at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City. He obtained his Ph.D. and Dr. Sc. degrees from Moscow Lomonosov State University, where he was Professor prior to his move to Mexico in 1992.He spent Visiting Scholar/Professor stays at Milan University, Italy, in 1980/81 and at the University of California at Santa Barbara in 1998/99. His research is focused on physical organic chemistry and metal complex catalysis and he is the author of 160 peer-reviewed scientific publications including a monograph "Principles and Methods in Supramolecular Chemistry" by John Wiley & Sons and further book contributions.
