Dr. Trygg is currently an Associate professor in the Research group for Chemometrics, Chemistry department, and group leader of chemometrics and bioinformatics at Umeå Plant Science Center (UPSC), Umeå University. He received his Ph.D. in Chemistry and was awarded the prestigious KAW scholarship in 2001. Dr. Trygg has worked as a Post-Doc in Bioinformatics in Brisbane, Australia, and in the metabonomics group headed by Jeremy Nicholson, at Imperial College, London. Dr. Trygg has been given this award in recognition of his significant contribution in the past 5 years to the field of chemometrics in the developing of new methods like Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures and the extension of others like orthogonal signal correction. Furthermore, his efforts spreading the use of chemometrics in QSAR and all the -omics (especially metabonomics) and Systems Biology fields were considered of high value About the Award Previous Awardees |
