Robert DiLorenzo, Staff Scientist – Global Technical Marketing, Food & Beverage, SCIEX

With BSc and MSc degrees in chemistry from the University of Toronto and a Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from Memorial University, Robert has been developing methods to analyze many small and large molecules from PFAS to biopolymers in various environmental matrices for over a decade. During his Ph.D., Robert used targeted and non-targeted approaches with high-resolution mass spectrometry to characterize complex mixtures (i.e., biomass burning aerosols).

Robert then completed a post-doc at the Hospital for Sick Children to develop high-throughput exposomic screening methods for identifying the role of contaminants on fetal development.

Robert joined SCIEX in 2017 and is now the Staff Scientist in Global Technical Marketing for Food and Beverage markets.
