Robert Frederick Hansen

Robert Hansen is currently an assistant professor of chemistry at Quinnipiac University. His primary areas of teaching are general chemistry and analytical chemistry. Dr. Hansen completed his Ph. D. in analytical chemistry at Indiana University Bloomington. During his Ph. D., Dr. Hansen participated in several major atmospheric field measurement efforts, including the 2009 CABINEX and 2010 CalNex campaigns. Dr. Hansen was selected for the Biosphere-Atmosphere Research and Training Fellowship, an NSF-funded graduate training program. Dr. Hansen was also selected for the Chateaubriand Science Fellowship program. This fellowship gave him the opportunity to work on the construction of custom atmospheric instrumentation at the Institut Mines-Télécom Lille Douai. Dr. Hansen has completed postdoctoral research at the University of Leeds (UK) and Indiana University Bloomington. Dr. Hansen's current research focuses on the measurement of nitrogen oxide fluxes from soil and soil surrogates. This research draws on his expertise in atmospheric instrumentation and environmental chemistry.
