Presenter
Dr. Andryj Borys is research chemist and author of the renown “Schlenk Line Survival Guide”. During his time at the University of Bern in Switzerland as well as various positions in the United Kingdom and Canada, he became an expert working with the Schlenk line as an important standard application in the laboratory. Thanks to his hands-on mentality, he documented his experiences in an online Schlenk Line Survival Guide, where he shares valuable advice from his own laboratory practice. Thousands of chemists meanwhile follow him on social media and benefit from his instructions and tips.
