Introduction
Andras Guttman, MTA-Lendület Professor of Translational Glycomics, leads the Horváth Csaba Memorial Laboratory of Bioseparation Sciences (HLBS) at University of Pannonia and Debrecen (Hungary), established with the help of his Marie Curie Chair from the European Commission to pursue basic research in the field of bioseparation sciences. His research interests include the development and implementation of high-performance bioanalytical techniques for proteomics and glycomics based biomarker discovery using single- and multi-dimensional separation methods, including microfluidics endeavors. Prior to establishing HLBS, Dr. Guttman held appointments at Diversa Corporation (San Diego, CA) implementing bioindustrial scale carbohydrate analysis methods; at the Torrey Mesa Research Institute (La Jolla, CA) applying microfluidics methods to large scale genotyping; Genetic BioSystems (San Diego, CA), working on a novel microgel electrophoresis platform; and at Beckman Coulter (Fullerton, CA) developing capillary electrophoresis kits. In his postdoctoral work at the Barnett Institute (Boston, MA), he conducted basic research in the field of capillary gel electrophoresis significantly contributing to the Human Genome Project with his patented replaceable gel formulations. He has more than 354 publications (327 peer reviewed), 36 book chapters, 6 edited books, 32 grants and 25 patents. Professor Guttman is the past president of the Hungarian Chapter of the American Chemical Society, a Board member of the California Association of Separation Scientists, and Editor in Chief for Current Molecular Medicine. Dr. Guttman graduated from the University of Chemical Engineering in Veszprem (Hungary), where he also received his doctoral degree.
