Authors

Samuel Carda-Broch Professor, University Jaume I in Castellon, Spain. Samuel Carda-Broch was born in Villarreal (Castell�, Spain). He obtained his PhD from the University of Valencia in 1999 under the direction of Prof. Garc�a-�lvarez-Coque. After working in the pharmaceutical industry (Italf�rmaco, Madrid, Spain), in 2001 he moved to the Laboratoire des Sciences Analytiques at the University Claude Bernard in Lyon (France) for a post-doctorate stay under the supervision of Dr. Alain Berthod, granted by a Marie Curie fellowship. In 2002, he moved to the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Iowa State University (USA), together with Prof. Alain Berthod to work with Prof. Daniel Armstrong. He has worked in the University Jaume I in Castell�n (Spain) since 2003, where he is Professor. He has written more than 100 research articles, most focusing on the field of applied analysis, with a main focus on micellar liquid chromatography. He has also made outstanding contributions in countercurrent chromatography and the use of ionic liquids in chemical analysis. Maria Jose Ruiz-Angel Department of Analytical Chemistry, University of Valencia, Spain. Mar�a Jos� Ruiz-�ngel was born in Valencia (Spain). She obtained her PhD from the University of Valencia (Spain) in 2003 under the direction of Prof. Garc�a-�lvarez-Coque. Between 2004 and 2006, she was granted with a post-doctorate fellowship in the Laboratoire des Sciences Analytiques at the University Claude Bernard in Lyon (France) under the supervision of Prof. Alain Berthod. Between 2007 and 2008, she was awarded with a Ram�n y Cajal research position in the Department of Analytical Chemistry at the University of Valencia, where she has been Professor since March 2012. She has written over 70 research articles, most focusing on secondary equilibria using surfactants and ionic liquids, fundamental studies in HPLC, modelling and optimisation in HPLC, countercurrent chromatography and development of analytical methods for pharmaceutical and clinical samples.
