Gary's research interests are in the areas of mass spectrometry instrumentation, ion activation, ion chemistry and development of methods for characterizing compounds of biological and environmental interest. In the area of instrumentation his focus has been on hybrid mass spectrometers and quadrupole ion traps. He has conceived and built several hybrid mass spectrometers including the first tandem quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometer in 1984. He began his association with quadrupole ion traps in 1984 and more than half of his 100+ publications are related to quadrupole ion trap development and applications. He is a co-author of a book on tandem mass spectrometry and several book chapters on quadrupole ion traps.
Gary is active in the American Society for Mass Spectrometry. He was VP for Arrangements 1987-1989 and has chaired numerous interest groups and the Sanibel Conference twice. He served as an associate editor for JASMS from 1989-2007 and is currently VP for Programs/President-Elect. He co-teaches a short course at ASMS on Quadrupole Ion Traps. He was chair of the Lake Louise Workshop on Tandem Mass Spectrometry from 1999-2006.
