His current research emphasizes the development and implementation of new analytical instrumentation and methodology and focuses on the identification and determination of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, using the marine snail Aplysia as a model system. Much of his research group's work involve

โฆ Synopsis
He is considered to be the founder and one of the leaders of micelle and cyclodextrinbased separations. He first elucidated the chiral recognition mechanism in cyclodextrin systems. Over thirty different LC and GC columns originally developed in his laboratories have been commercialized and/or duplicated worldwide. Dr. Armstrong has published over two hundred papers, contributed fourteen chapters, co-authored one book, four patents with five pending, and given over two hundred invited seminars and oral presentations.
He has won numerous research and teaching awards, and most recently he developed a new show ('We're Science") for National Public Radio which is syndicated nationally in the USA.
NOMINATIONS FOR THE 1997 BENEDEII-PICHLER AWARD
The American Microchemical Society is soliciting nominations for the prestigious 1997 Benedetti-Pichler Award. The award, established in 1966, is given annually to recognize outstanding achievements in microanalytical chemistry. The award consists of a plaque and expenses to attend the Eastern Analytical Symposium in Somerset, New Jersey, in November 1997 to receive the award at a session in honor of the awardee.
Nominations or further information, including at least two supporting letters should be sent no later than October 30, 1996 to

He received his Ph.D. in analytical chemistry in 1979 at the University of Cincinnati, Ohio, and then spent 10 years on the chemistry faculty at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, where he received four departmental, college, and university teaching awards. He returned to Cincinnati
His current research involves chiral recognition, specific separation and detection of enantiomers, cyclodextrin chemistry, investigation of biologically active molecules, and environmental analysis. Further research is on the theory, mechanism, and use of enantioselective molecular interactions. He
