Oliver Geschke graduated in Chemistry in 1994 at the university of Munster, Germany. He joined the Institute for Chemical and Biochemical Sensor Research, Munster, Germany, where he carried out his PhD research titles "Development and Characterization of muTAS sensors analyzing phenolic compounds and dissolved oxygen - Ways to a laboratory on a chip". In December 1998 he joined the MIC at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), kgs. Lyngby, Denmark, where he worked as an assistant professor on a European Project on wastewater analysers. In November 2001 he became Associated Professor at MIC where he is heading a research group "Polymeric Environmental Microsystems, POEM". Oliver has been supervising and co-supervising a number of MSc and PhD students and postdoctoral researchers. He published about 15 papers in various journals and international conference proceedings, contributed to two textbooks and holds one patent. Apart from his teaching duties at DTU he taught in several national and international courses - mostly on matter that is covered in this book. Henning Klank studied Physics at the Ludwig-Maximillian University in Munich, Germany, finishing with a MSc degree in experimental physics. The following years he spent at Massey University in Palmerston North, New Zealand, where he completed a PhD in Physics, working on the instrumentation for a scanning tunneling microscope. Currently Henning is working as a postdoctoral fellow at the um;TAS group at MIC at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), kgs. Lyngby, Denmark. His general field of interest is instrumentation, automation and measurement. His most recent work at MIC involved fabrication of plastic Microsystems using infrared laser machining, particle image velocimetry and designing electronic measurement and processing equipment for Bio/Chemical MicroSystem. Pieter Telleman received a Chemical Engineering degree from the University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands, in 1987 and a MSc degree in Biochemistry from the University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands in 1990. In 1995 he received his PhD in Medicine from the University of Amsterdam (Amsterdam, The Netherland). In 1995 Pieter joined the Harvard University, Boston, MA, USA as a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard Institutes of Medicine (HIM) followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at the Harvard Medical School (HMS), He joined the MIC at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), kgs. Lyngby, Denmark, as a group leader of the Bio/Chemical MicroSystem group in 1998. Pieter was appointed Professor in Bio/Chemical MicroSystem at the DTU on July 1, 2001 and assumed the position of center director at MIC in 2003. His research focuses on the application of micro- and nanotechnology to chemistry and the life sciences where the aim is to perform complete chemical and bio/chemical analyses on silicon, glass and plastic chips thereby improving overall performance.
