Dr Chris D. Geddes, Ph.D., Professor, has extensive experience in fluorescence spectroscopy and Plasmonics, particularly in fluorescence sensing and metal-fluorophore interactions (Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence), publishing over 200 papers and 20 books. Dr Geddes is internationally known in fluorescence for his scholarly publications and for the development of fluorescence-based plasmonics. He is the editor-in-chief of the Journal of Fluorescence and founding editor of the Who s Who in Fluorescence and Annual Reviews in Fluorescence volumes. In addition, due to the labs pioneering efforts in the fields of metallic nanoparticle-fluorophore interactions, Dr Geddes launched the Springer Journal "Plasmonics" in 2005. Dr Geddes is Director of the Institute of Fluorescence at the University of Maryland Baltimore County which focuses on the nano-bio-technological applications of fluorescence. Dr Geddes frequently chairs NIH study sections and is currently a permanent member of the NIH EBIT study section.
