There we were the first Canadian researchers to begin studying this new and exciting field of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC\u00d7GC). Over the course of my graduate work, I developed several modulators for GC\u00d7GC and invented a new mode of operation for GC\u00d7GC, termed stop-flow GC\u00d7GC, and conducted the first systematic studies into column overloading effects in GC\u00d7GC.<\/p>\n<p>I finished my PhD in December of 2004, and in January 2005 I took up a position with the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rmit.edu.au\/appliedsciences\/chromatography\">Australian Centre for Research on Separation Science at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology<\/a>\u00a0in Melbourne, Australia working with Philip Marriott. While there I continued studies into GC\u00d7GC applications and theory. We introduced the use of short primary columns for fast GC\u00d7GC and simultaneously became the first group to use cold-on-column injection for a GC\u00d7GC separation. We also introduced the concept of the\u00a0<em>Modulation Ratio<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 a term that relates the width of a peak eluting from the first dimension to the modulation period. This allows one to quickly and easily evaluate the extent of modulation in a separation and compare the modulation between separations.<\/p>\n<p>In May 2007, I found myself here at the University of Alberta, starting up a new laboratory.
