Council of Engineering and Scientific

Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB)... 

Another U.S. certification organization is the Council of Engineering and Scientific Certification Boards (CESB). This organization also sets standards and awards accreditation for individual certifications. The organization limits its participation to engineering, science, and related domains.

Danilo Corradini is research director at the Institute of Chemical Methodologies of the Italian National Research Council (CNR) and a member of the General Scientific Advisory Board of CNR. His involvement in separation science started in 1976 with his research work on chromatography and electrophoresis for his PhD studies in chemistry, which was carried out at Sapienza University of Rome, Italy, under the direction of Michael Lederer, founder and first editor of the Journal of Chromatography. In 1983-1984, he worked with Csaba Horvath, the pioneer of HPLC, at the Department of Chemical Engineering at Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, where he initiated his first investigations on the HPLC of proteins and peptides, which he continued at the Institute of Chromatography of CNR after he returned to Italy.
