Kevin A. Schug is Associate Professor and Shimadzu Distinguished Professor of Analytical Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at The University of Texas at Arlington (UTA). He is also Shimadzu Science Advisor to the Vice President for Research at UTA and an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Neuroscience at the University of North Texas Health Science Center.
Dr. Schug received his B.S. degree in Chemistry in 1998 from the College of William and Mary, and his Ph.D. degree in Chemistry from Virginia Tech in 2002 under the supervision of Prof. Harold M. McNair. From 2003-2005, he performed post-doctoral research in the laboratory of Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Lindner at the University of Vienna in Austria.
Since joining UTA in 2005, his research has been focused on the theory and application of separation science and mass spectrometry for solving a variety of analytical and physical chemistry problems. Two main research threads are currently pursued with some intertwined aspects: 1) Fundamental studies of chromatographic separations and mass spectrometry ionization mechanisms; and 2) isolation, characterization, and trace analysis of bioactive compounds in complex matrices. His group is also active in chemical education research. Financial support for chemistry and educational research is from UTA, Eli Lilly and Company, that National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Shimadzu Scientific Instruments, Inc., and other industry partners. He has 78 peer-reviewed publications and over 250 presentations, posters, and invited talks to his group’s credit. Over the course of nine years at UTA he has been PI or co-PI on $5.5-Million in external grant support, contracts, and awards; he has further contributed to capturing $17.8-Million in development support, which have been used to create the Shimadzu Center for Advanced Analytical Chemistry (www.uta.edu/scaac) and the Shimadzu Institute for Research Technologies at UTA.
Dr. Schug is Founder and Director of a K-12 science outreach program Diversity in Science in the United States (www.discusprogram.com). He is the institutional founder and steering committee member for the Organizational Network for Teaching as Research Advancement and Collaboration (ON-TRAC; https://grad.uta.edu/ontrac) at UTA, an affiliate of the nationwide Center for Integration of Research Teaching and Learning (CIRTL) preparing future faculty program. He is a project leader in UTA’s National Science Foundation STEM Talent Expansion Program (STEP), which focuses on efforts to improve retention and graduation rates of STEM students (www.uta.edu/auras). Through these, Dr. Schug’s efforts touch virtually every level of the U.S. STEM education system.
Dr. Schug has received the 2009 Emerging Leader in Chromatography award given by LCGC magazine, an NSF CAREER award, the 2009 Eli Lilly and Company ACACC Young Investigator Award in Analytical Chemistry, and the 2013 American Chemical Society Division of Analytical Chemistry Young Investigator in Separation Science Award. For his teaching, he received the 2014 University of Texas System Regents’ Outstanding Teaching Award. He is a member of the Editorial Advisory Board of LCGC Magazine (Advanstar) and Analytica Chimica Acta (Elsevier). He is a Senior Editor for Journal of Separation Science (Wiley). He writes a regular blog for LCGC On-line (www.chromatographyonline.com/lcgc) on various aspects of separation science, which is promoted and subscribed to across the world.
研究领域
Mixtures of bioactive chemical compounds require high efficiency separations and mass spectrometry techniques for their careful characterization. Our laboratory has become particularly adept at the development of methods for quantitative analysis of small and large molecules present in trace quantities in biological fluids. With this ability, we can provide strong support of pharmaceutical, preclinical, and clinical research. We are also currently undertaking one of the most extensive investigations of the potential impact of industrial processes, such as unconventional drilling and hydraulic fracturing, on our environment. This includes a large focus on groundwater quality. In our group, we strive to use the complete analytical chemistry toolbox to solve problems, including state-of-the-art sample preparation, gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry techniques. We are interested in both fundamental and applied research problems. We work in close collaboration with many influential industry and academic partners to ensure our research is timely and relevant to today’s needs and issues. Some specific topics of current research include development and application of:
• An integrated instrument for simultaneous determination of small and large molecules from complex samples featuring multidimensional liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry;
• restricted access media for on-line sample preparation;
• methods for evaluation of the potential impact of unconventional drilling processes on groundwater quality;
• technologies for remediation of waste water; and the characterization thereof;
• novel methods for antibacterial drug discovery, especially materials and mass spectrometric methods to stream-line discovery work-flows;
• a new gas chromatography – vacuum ultraviolet absorption detection system;
• higher order tandem mass spectrometry for the differentiation and elucidation of isomeric natural products and chemical degradation mechanisms.
