BERTRAND S. LANHER, Ph.D., Director of Applied Science & Technology

A specialist in chemometrics applied to multi-components IR quantitative analysis (Far-, Mid- and Near-IR), he is responsible for field customer support. Bertrand has 17 years of experience in all aspects of the development of analytical instrumentation (GC-MS, FT-IR and Flow Cytometry), including hardware, optical accessories, sampling robotics, firmware, software and chemometrics methods development. He also has experience with regulatory approval processes for analytical instrumentation with the FDA, AOAC Int’l and IDF-FIL. Bertrand has worked both for and with government agencies (INRA - France; ATF - USA, respectively), universities and colleges (McGill University; UW-Madison; Edgewood College) and for FTIR, DIR, NDIR and Flow Cytometry manufacturers (Thermo Nicolet, Anadis Instruments; Perstorp Analytical). Most recently, Bertrand was teaching organic chemistry and analytical instrumentation methods (MS, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR) both at the UW-Madison and Edgewood College (Madison, WI).

Bertrand holds a BS in Biochemistry and a MS in Molecular Biology from the Université des Sciences et Techniques de Lille 1 (France) and a MS in Food Analytical Chemistry and a PhD in Chemometrics & Instrumentation from the Université de Bourgogne (France).
