60th Birthday of Professor Paul Haddad : Editorial in Chromatographia 68 (2008) 883-884

On December 8th, Prof. Paul Haddad, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Tasmania will be 60 years old. The general aim of his research has been the study of separation mechanisms and methods of detection, with a view to improving fundamental understanding of these aspects and to apply this understanding to the development of new chromatographic and electrophoretic methods of analysis. His solid contributions in the general field of separation science, with particular emphasis on the separation and quantification of ionic species using high performance liquid chromatography, ion chromatography, capillary electrophoresis and capillary electrochromatography have been appreciated worldwide. There is no doubt that Paul's wife, Kerry Haddad, has made major contributions to his successful career. Let us congratulate Professor Haddad and join in wishing him many more productive years in good health.
