Anton Amann (born June 20, 1956 in Bregenz ) is an Austrian chemist and Professor of chemistry at the Innsbruck Medical University. He is working in the area of physical chemistry, ECG analysis, and exhaled breath analysis.
Amann is the head of the Breath Research Institute of the Austrian Academy of Science [1] and Editor in Chief of the Journal of Breath Research.[2]
He is the author of more than 130 scientific articles.[3]
Career
After studying Chemistry at the ETH Zürich, he continued with a PhD in Science. The title of his dissertation 1984 with Hans Primas and Norbert Straumann was Observable in der W*-algebraischen Quantenmechanik [1]. In 1991 he earned Habilitation in Physical Chemistry at the ETH Zürich. From 1987 to 1995 he was a Senior Research Associate at the Institute of Physical Chemistry at the ETH Zürich.
In 1995 he was awarded an APART grant from the Austrian Academy of Sciences and he also received an invitation to join Yale University as Associate Professor. In 1993 he was awarded with AECI Gold Medal by the South African Chemical Institute. In 2010 he received the Marie Sklodowska Curie Medal of the Polish Chemical Society.
From 2006-2009 he was the coordinator of the European Union Project BAMOD [4] (lung carcinoma screening, project funding: 3 million euro). In 2005 he was chairman and organizer of the international conference Breath Analysis for Clinical Diagnosis and Therapeutic Monitoring.,[5] Innsbruck (Austria). In 2004 he was chairman and organizer of the international conference Breath Gas Analysis for Medical Diagnostics.,[6] Dornbirn (Austria).
Since 1997 he was a professor of chemistry at the Leopold-Franzens University of Innsbruck, and since 2004 at the Innsbruck Medical University.
