DESCRIPTION:Prof. David C. Magri\, University of Malta\nBio: David C. Magr
 i graduated from the University of Western Ontario in London\, Canada with
  a B.Sc. Honours and Ph.D. in Chemistry in the area of physical organic ch
 emistry. He was a post-doctoral Research Fellow at Queen’s University of
  Belfast in Northern Ireland. While in Belfast working with Prof. A. P. de
  Silva\, he demonstrated the first molecular three-input AND logic gate as
  a 'lab-on-a-molecule' prototype for medical diagnostic application.\nHe r
 eturned to Canada as an Assistant Professor at the University of Prince Ed
 ward Island (2006-2007)\, and subsequently held positions at the Universit
 y of Ontario Institute of Technology (2007-2008) and at Acadia University 
 (2008-2010). David joined the University of Malta in September 2010 as Sen
 ior Lecturer in Analytical Chemistry.\nHe is a leading expert in the field
  of luminescent sensing and molecular logic gates with the distinction of 
 having the “Most Cited Paper in Tetrahedron 2005-2008”\, which has bee
 n cited over 700 times to date. He is the author of numerous peer-reviewed
  publications including 3 book chapters. His current research interests ar
 e the rational design and synthesis of novel luminescent molecular and sup
 ramolecular logic gates and nanomaterials with useful functional capabilit
 ies that combine sensing\, computing and functionality for potential real-
 life applications.\nHe regularly reviews research manuscripts for numerous
  international chemistry journals and regularly presents at various intern
 ational conferences in addition to being the local coordinator for Science
  in the House\, an Associate Editor of Xjenza\, and Malta’s representati
 ve on the COST CM1005 "Supramolecular Chemistry in Water" Management Commi
 ttee.\n
