Dr. Chris Gill, P. Chem.

Dr. Chris Gill is Professor of Chemistry, an active adjunct faculty at three other institutions, and has specific expertise in analytical instrumentation development, laser spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS). His research interests include the development of ultra-trace, direct MS methods, including Membrane Introduction Mass Spectrometry (MIMS) and paper spray mass spectrometry (PS-MS), for in situ and rapid measurements of trace analytes in complex environmental and bioanalytical samples.

Areas of Expertise

Dr. Chris Gill is Professor of Chemistry, an active adjunct faculty at three other
institutions, and has specific expertise in analytical instrumentation development, laser
spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS). His research interests include the development of
ultra-trace, direct MS methods, including Membrane Introduction Mass Spectrometry (MIMS),
for the in situ measurement of trace analytes in air, water and solids at low parts per trillion
levels.
