William (Bill) Farrell, senior principal scientist at Pfizer Inc., has won the first annual Averica Award. The award will be presented at the SFC 2013 conference in Boston on 12 July.
The decision was made by the committee to reward Farrell for his “substantial impact on design of preparative SFC systems” and that he and his team “have probably done more (or at least shared more) with respect to stationary phase development that any other research group.”
Farrell said: "This is really an honour. I've been lucky to work with a lot of colleagues and collaborators who contributed a passion for science and chromatography to a lot of different projects, and I'm especially grateful that the body of our work is being recognized as a whole".
