'''Robert (Bob) Kennedy''' (born 1962) is an American chemist specializing in bioanalytical chemistry including liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and microfluidics. He is currently the Hobart H. Willard Distinguished University Professor of Chemistry and the Chair of the Department of Chemistry at the [[University of Michigan]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Robert Kennedy |url=https://lsa.umich.edu/chem/people/faculty/rtkenn.html |website=UM LSA |publisher=University of Michigan |accessdate=29 October 2019}}</ref> He holds joint appointments with the Department of Pharmacology and Department Macromolecular Science and Engineering.<ref>{{cite web |title=Robert T.

|||
== Early life and education== |
|||
Kennedy was born on November 11, 1962 In the Michigan upper peninsula. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at the University of Florida in 1984 and a Ph.D. from the University of [[North Carolina-Chapel Hill]] (UNC) in 1988 while working under [[James Jorgenson]]. He was an NSF post-doctoral fellow at UNC from 1989-1991 with [[Mark Wightman|R. Mark Wightman]]. |
|||
== Academic career and research interests == |
|||
Kennedy became a professor of chemistry at the University of Florida in 1991. After 11 years, he moved to the University of Michigan. He has graduated approximately 70 graduate students. Kennedy’s research focuses on developing analytical instrumentation and methods that can help solve biological problems.<ref>{{cite web |title=The Kennedy Group |url=http://kennedygroup.lsa.umich.edu/ |accessdate=29 October 2019}}</ref> He is considered an expert in endocrinology, neurochemistry, and high-throughput analysis. Major contributions to analytical chemistry include affinity probe capillary electrophoresis, in vivo neurochemical measurements, and ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography. |
