András Guttman is holding a Marie Curie Chair of the European Commission and leads the recently formed Horváth Laboratory of Bioseparation Sciences (HLBS) at the University of Innsbruck, Austria. HLBS serves as a Center of Excellence and Training in the Central and Eastern European region to pursue basic research in the field of bioseparation sciences with the aim to develop and implement high performance bioanalytical techniques for genomics, proteomics and metabolomics based biomarker discovery using single- and multi-dimensional separation methods. Prior to joining the 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), developing a novel microgel electrophoresis platform; and at Beckman Coulter (Fullerton, CA) working on capillary electrophoresis kits. In his postdoctoral work at the Barnett Institute (Boston, MA), he conducted basic research in the field of capillary gel electrophoresis. He has more than a 180 scientific publications, edited several textbooks and holds 15 patents. He is an associate director of CASSS and on the editorial boards of numerous international scientific journals. Dr. Guttman graduated from the Veszprem University (Hungary) in chemical engineering, where he also received his Ph.D. He was awarded the Analytical Chemistry Award of the Hungarian Chemical Society in 2000 and became a member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 2004.
