JOHN PHILLIPS AWARD
Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatograpy, or GC×GC, was invented by the late Professor John Bruce Phillips of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale and his then graduate student, Dr. Zaiyou Liu. The Phillips Prize will be awarded every other year to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the field of GC×GC analysis. The Phillips Award first given in 2004 recognizes individuals who have typically worked in the GC×GC field for less than 10 years but have demonstrated good leadership through their scientific peer-reviewed work.
The 2026 John Phillips Award sponsored by LECO consists of a cash prize and a scroll with the winner’s name.
