Course Instructor

Michael W. Dong is a Senior Scientist at Genentech, Small Molecule Drug Discovery, South San Francisco, CA. His research interests are in Fast LC, ultra-high-pressure LC, rapid HPLC method development and chiral separations. He was formerly Research Director at Synomics Pharmaceutical Services, Research Fellow/Group Leader at Purdue Pharma, Senior Staff Scientist at Applied Biosystems / Perkin-Elmer, and section-head in Hoechst Celanese. He holds a B.Sc. in Chemistry from Brooklyn College and a Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry from City University of New York Graduate Center. He has conducted numerous HPLC training courses at national meetings (ACS, Pittcon, EAS, HPLC, AAPS) on advanced HPLC, Fast LC / HTS, stability testing and HPLC method development. He pioneered Fast LC and has over 80 publications in chromatography and analytical chemistry. He authored a best-seller in chromatography - Modern HPLC for Practicing Scientists, Wiley, 2006 and co-edited Handbook of Pharmaceutical Analysis by HPLC, Elsevier/Academic Press, 2005.
