个人简介
On completion of a BSc in Chemistry (1991) and PhD in Chemical Physics (1994), both at the University of Southampton, Viant spent almost a decade in the USA, initially as a Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of California (UC) Berkeley (chemistry) and subsequently as a postdoctoral researcher and then independent faculty member at UC Davis (environmental toxicology). Here, he pioneered the application of metabolomics to environmental health issues in aquatic organisms.
In 2003 he relocated to the University of Birmingham as a NERC Advanced Fellow with the remit to further develop metabolomics in environmental toxicology. With funding from the NERC, BBSRC, MRC, Wellcome Trust, Wolfson Foundation, EU, Environment Agency and several US agencies, Viant has established a large and active research group in environmental metabolomics. In 2008 he was appointed to Reader in Metabolomics, in 2009 became the Director of the NERC Biomolecular Analysis Facility for Metabolomics, and in 2010 secured his current Chair in Metabolomics. He has served as the President of the international Metabolomics Society since 2012. His achievements in metabolomics research have recently been recognised by the University of Birmingham’s highest award, the Joseph Chamberlain Award for Academic Advancement (2013)
