β¦ Synopsis
Professor Tyge Greibrokk belongs to the select group of separation scientists who have been working actively with most of the methods present in the evolving battery of separation techniques. He has been active in the field of separation science for about three decades, and is the author or co-author of more than 200 articles. He is presently editor of Journal of Separation Science and member of the editorial boards of Chromatographia, Journal of Chromatography A, and Journal of Biochemical and Biophysical Methods, while he is a former member of the editorial boards of Journal of Microcolumn Separations and Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis. More that 100 Lic./Ms.Sc. and Ph.D. students have been supervised by Professor Greibrokk, in addition to a considerable number of exchange students and visiting researchers from outside Norway. Professor Greibrokk is still very active on the international lecture circuit and has given a vast number of lectures over the years, most of them as invited speaker.
Professor Greibrokk obtained his Lic. in organic chemistry at the University of Oslo in 1968 where he was working on the synthesis of pyridinium derivatives from optically active amino acids under the supervision of Professor Kjell Undheim. Later, he stayed at the Institute for Biomedical Research at the University of Texas at Austin 1973Austin -1975, where he was introduced to analytical chemistry and instrumental chromatographic techniques, and explored liquid chromatography (LC) for isolation of hypothalamic factors affecting the secretion of hypophyseal hormones. From 1974 to 1975 he was assistant director of research at the institute. After returning to the University of Oslo in 1975, he defended his Ph.D. in bioanalytical chemistry and was appointed associate professor in analytical chemistry with responsibility for establishing the new research group in organic analytical chemistry at the Department of Chemistry.
